Im not one to be asking for help I like to figure it out on my own. But this is something new.

Take a look at this.

This happens when I open WoW then Open another WoW. The first screen will be fine until a 2nd one is open. I then have to close both and retry until it works.


My specs are.

E-GeForce 8600 GTS Superclocked 512mb x2 (Sli COnfig)
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66ghz
2gigs Ram.


This started happening when I went to SLI mode. I thought SLI made things better not mess it up. I have tested both graphics cards they both work fine. But Im new to the SLI thing so I could be doing something wrong. I Have switched the stick on my mobo to SLI and went into nvidia options and changed it to SLI. Are there other options I can do?


My 2nd problem is. When I am able to get my 4 or 5 wow windows open at the same time the game lags badly for about a couple mins then its all fine. Why does my computer not like this for the first few mins?

Things to know so you don't have to ask:
I would like to add my graphics setting in wow are set to low even tho I can run in High I like not to put my comp threw stress.

I only have 1 copy installed on my computer


Thanks guys. I got to go to work now so hopefully when I get home tonight I will find some help :)

SLI is for running 2 graphics cards in 1 machine at the same time. Don't turn on SLI unless you are doing that.

I'm sorry... I feel like I re-read it 4 times to make sure that he wasn't running 2 cards, before I make an ass out of myself... I guess that didn't work.
