SLi causing games to go black
I´m using 2x EVGA e-GeForce 8800 GTS with an EVGA nForce 680i LT SLi board with 169.25 drivers
I was able to start and play Crysis once but it was all jumpy, so I went to lower the settings and the screen went black. I can start Crysis now, but when I go to again change the settings, the screen goes black and I have to use task manager. The music continues and the cursor remains can will move, but TM says the game is not responding.
I then tried Bioshock. It started but went black when I went to change the settings. Then I attempted to play Bioshock w/o adjusting the settings. It loads and I see the game screen for a second then it goes black again.
There is also the same error popping up for both Bioshock and Crysis:
