Hello all, thank you for your time.

The Problem: After logging into windows, my Nvidia driver crashes and recovers multiple times before I get a blue screen. This problem has arisen after trying to enable SLI with a second graphics card.

I have tried:
- a fresh install of windows and the problem still exists.
- reinstalling current Nvidia driver

My specs are:

-Inland 650 watt PSU 80+ Bronze Certified
-MSI 970A-G46 Motherboard
-2 X 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz Ram
-Amd FX 6300
-1- Zotac GTX 560 Ti
-1- Geforce GTX 560 Ti

I really don't think it should be an issue with the power supply, however I could be wrong

What I haven't done yet:
- install previous version of driver

Any help would be much appreciated!

although your mobo is far from recommended for an sli setup is should work since it marked as sli certified.! try using another SLI bridge connector. finally try flashing your bios to the latest version!

GTX 560 Ti
Maximum Graphics Card Power (W) 170 W
Minimum System Power Requirement (W) 500 W
Supplementary Power Connectors Two 6-pin

that Inland (which i have never heard of) must be the culprit.! this is the only info google can find!

with 2 x 6+2-pin can theoritically output up to 2x150w =300w, which i doubt it can! with your gpus we have 2x170w = 340w . so better get a new quality unit! a decent 650w unit would provide at least 3 x 6+2-pin or more pcie power cables

Thanks for the reply.

How do you find the theoretical output of the 2 x 6+2 connectors?

2x150w is the maximum power 2x6+2 pin power cables can carry.

here is what psu specs looks like. there should be a sticker for yours too. the +12v rail capability is what matters the most

a true 650w psu would provide at least 600w on the 12 v rail only!

A GeForce GTX 560 Ti / 448 Cores GPU must be paired with another GeForce GTX 560 Ti / 448 Cores GPU (graphics card manufacturer can be different)

check bios for any sli - pcie config. occupying other pcie slots may cut down pcie lanes needed for sli support. you need your pcie slots running at x8/x8 for the sli support!

Just checked the BIOS settings and there is no SLI - PCI-E configurations. Don't know what else to do at this point.

Edit:

I am starting to suspect that its the motherboard. It is advertised as SLI ready, however there are conflicting reports elsewhere online.
