Since most people cant get SLI to work or dont have 2 cards, why cant we have the 2D clouds anyway?

maybe they are to be released "shortly" again...

4.Re-start normally (but without internet connection) and run the driver install.
5. Restart with Internet connection and re-do settings etc.

This has always worked for me. As to the Nvidia update thing I don't use it. Nvidia bundles up a load of useless rubbish with their drivers and this is another example. If you want to update your drivers better to do it yourself.

thanks mate
you give me the answer that i want in the last line

SLI has not worked correctly since day 1, I think that the clouds conflict with SLI is just a smoke screen although I could be wrong, but if I am wrong I would like to know which driver Luthier is using to get SLI working and how he has set is SLI profile up. To be honest I am not expecting an answer from him on this.

Personally I can't see any noticable improvements in either CoD or RoF.

He said they broke SLI support just before the initial release, presumably that's how they know as it was once working. What drivers were working is irrelevant because they broke it and it doesn't work. (Probably with that Epilepsy filter)

Since then they claim to have fixed SLI, read previous posts.

So i wil wait and not install the new driver. Thought its been a little bit faster.

Thanks for some hints.

i roll back to 275.33 drivers
the new ones is crappy for me..[the BFBC2 had worst performance]
