Bustah Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 anyone know how to get crosfirex to work in xp? ccc says its enabled but gpuz shows only 2 gpus working? should show 4 as it does in vista. and the scores tell me its not working. I tried installing a direct x 10 patch for xp, but that doesnt change crossfire x. I enabled cgi in my bios, no change. If anyone knows something I dont please post here. thanks in advance.

Bustah Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 (edited) Thats what I thought but there are scores in aquamark and 2001 using xp crossfirex is enabled and 4 gpus shown in gpuz shots? I found the directx 10 patch surfing the net, I think all it does is allow users to play direct x 10 games in xp, has made no difference in benchmarks at all.

Massman Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 4 gpus might be X2 x 2, no? Well, it's at least possible to run CF-X under XP, all you need are modded drivers ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1ch Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 XP can officially only support up to 2 GPU's with Vista required for 3 or 4 GPU configurations. Hacked drivers would be responsible for anything different. What's hwbot's policy on this? Anything goes? /Off topic DirectX 10 is posible under Windows XP - I got it working: http://www.digitalreport.net/content/view/90/1/ As all DX10 games are expecting to be run on Vista, there's a whole host of problems you come up against when installing and running the games. e.g 3DVantagee just won't install. Crysis needs you to swap some files around and even then still says it's running DX9 "Very High" mode. Crysis frequently locks up and crashes even when it does run. I'd classify it as a proof of concept or alpha release at the moment, not practical for use or benchmarks yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxi Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 They may not be running XP, Vista can be switched to Classic theme which looks like XP/2000. Do you have a link to the score or a screen shot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
