Before I post this on a more technical forum I figured I'd post it here first. This way I can only have a couple hundred people laugh at me before a bajillion do.
Ok, built my system back in November. After everything was installed I noticed I had an Nvidia control panel with out me having to manually install drivers. Worked great, no issues. Just had to enable SLI, that was it. Then a couple of days ago I noticed there were some new drivers on the Nvidia site. Selected my card, my OS, then it spit out this 266.58 version driver.
Unistalled the driver, even used Driver Sweeper, install went flawless. Hop into BFBC2, noticed my FPS went from 170, down to 70. Went to Nvidia control panel and noticed my system defaulted to single card operation. No problem, I re-enabled SLI. Restart BFBC2 hop into game, my FPS was a stuttering 30 FPS, gradually dropping down to about 20 FPS.
So I uninstalled the drivers, let Win 7 default back to the ones I had originally, now all is right again. So what did I do wrong besides trying to upgrade to newer drivers in the first place? Does it activate some kind of forced 100xAA that I don't now about, some kind of check box I missed for activating full power? I'm a noob to Win 7.
