Nvidia sli not showing up

[Jinhocho]

Hi all,

I just did my first computer build and an running into two problems. I am hoping you guys can help me with one of them. I have two identical nvidia 970 graphics cards. Both are installed. Both work. Both have identical drivers. I have tried two different sli bridges, but sli will not show up in the nvidia control panel options.

Any have any ideas how I can continue to troubleshoot this? My motherboard supports sli.

First 2 guesses:
 
1. You do have an sli bridge adapter between the 2 cards installed ?
 
2. Some motherboards have settings in their advanced BIOS that have to be set to handle sli directly.
 
If these are not your issues, we need details: exact models of video cards, OS and motherboard.

Yes, I am using an SLI bridge.  I even picked up a second one to make sure that wasnt the issue.

OS is Windows 10.

A quick look at setups says that mb does not require any special BIOS setting http://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?49109-How-to-setup-Hero-VII-SLI.
 
Have you tried using the bridge on the inner set of card connects ?
 
There are still issues with Win 10 and nVidia drivers. I'd try to install Win 7, if that works you have software issues with the drivers, if it also fails, then it's fingerpointing time between Asus & MSI
