I've just built a new PC using an SLI video solution, but this seems to create issues with halo (v1.06)! If I turn SLI off and use just the one video card everything is fine. When I enable the second card there are two issues:

1. I can see all lights through the walls, e.g. certain parts enemies, the big blue projectiles that get fired into the sky from the structures in the 'Halo' chapter etc.
2. The game will crash my PC after about 10 minutes of play (Argh!).

Specs:
AMD FX55
1GB Corsair XL3200 Pro @ 2-2-2-5
MSI K8N Diamond
2x GeForce 6800 Ultra SLI (71.84 Dets)

In my opinion the problem lies with Halo itself as I've played countless hours of Doom III, Half-life 2 and Far Cry without any problems whatsoever. Has anyone else had these issues and been able to resolve them?

holy -blam!-. you must be realy rich...wow. 2 6800 ultras...not even gt's....
sorry, i just wanted to say something along thoes lines. i doubt there are many people who will be able to tell us if halo has an issue with SLI, since that setup is...wow.
anywho, i assume it works fine on one gt, right? maybe it's adriver issue. did you use your cd's drivers, or download them off the internet?
also, when your computer crashes, does it look like it whent into standby mode, but is just nonresponsive?(black screen but power light still on) if so, how many watts is you powersuply?

Why would you even need 2 6800s? It runs fine on one so unless its a big hassel to switch, I wouldn't worry about it. I wish I had that comp... wow....just, wow
