Yay.

further progress.

I got Instant Swap working now and get 60fps.

What I did was move my ATI cards over to different slots. I had then in slots 2,3,4 and was thinking maybe that causes issues.

So I moved them to 1,2,3 and everything seems normal now.

the only thing bottlenecking now is hard drive access. rejoice.

but seems my main ATI card still does most of the work which I cant figure out

thanks for all the help. i hope it stays stable.
