Connecting to an NVIDIA® SLI™ Graphics Configuration
SLI-enabled graphics provides hardware support for one DVI-I monitor or one VGA
monitor using a DVI-to-VGA adapter.
The following shows how to connect your display to an SLI graphics configuration:
Configuring an SLI Graphics Configuration with Multiple Displays
Multiple monitor support is only available in an SLI configuration when SLI is disabled
in the NVIDIA driver control panel. When SLI is enabled, all other display devices
connected to other DVI or S-Video connections become inactive.
An SLI graphics configuration can support up to four displays when SLI is not enabled.
