Thanks for the kick in the pants Mhurron!
My issue was fixed by installing new drivers. I chose to get the beta-for-FFXI drivers. Below is the original issue. i should have been less lazy and just updated but I figured I'd ask first.
Ok, I'm sure this has been dealt with, but I haven't seen a posting regarding it. Maybe I'm just not using the right search terms or I'm not associating this correctly. Any help, including slapping me and pointing me to the right thread will be appreciated.
So, my problem is this: I start FFXI, or log out of it with SLI enabled, and this is what I see:

If I turn off SLI, it works fine. And SLI works fine inside of FFXI. However, there's just something... broken here. Either an option I need to set or a configuration I need to do.
I'll be honest. I know squat about SLI, this is my very first machine with it. I know both cards work, because SLI runs in everything else and improves framerates in everything else. It's just this one time where it's blank. The weird thing is when I do manage to blunder through blind, just before it loads FFXI, it will flash and fill in everything seconds before the screen changes.
Will the beta drivers fix that? I'm playing on an XPS m1730, and I know how to fix the inf file for that (Ironically I am a computer tech, just, again, don't know what to play with to fix this), but I don't want to really mess up the drivers since everything else is working beautifully.
Any ideas?
