Graphical probs on x-fire system

Hi all. I got very annoying graphical probs with WoW.

System specs:

GPUs: Ati Radeon x1950xtx CF master and a Ati Radeon x1950xtx

CPU: Intel Core 2 duo e6850@3,4ghz

Mobo: DFI Lanparty UT ICFX3200 TR2/G

Ram: 2x 1gb Mushkin ddr800mhz Dual Channel

HD: Seagate Barracuda 500 gb 7200.11

PSU: HX Corsair 620w

Its a minor problem but still very annoying. Often when i do not play in windowed mode the screen starts to operate very odd. There are pixels missing, some areas of the screen get darker then others, yellow and white lines start to randomly spawn everywhere. FPS is quite fine and everything else is fine. This does not appear at all when i play in windowed mode. Note that this problem does not occur when i first log in, only if i minimize the the game and come back. After the bugging starts i can get it away by relogging/changing screen resolution or by a 'loading area' screen. The problem doesnt exist with only 1 GPU in use. Have tested both cards alone and it works just fine. Also this problem does not occur in any other game but WoW.

Windowed mode would otherwise be fine but for some reason it only uses one of the GPU's to run the game. FPS is around 28-60 and in non win mode its 60-75 on maxed settings. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

World of Warcraft does not have legacy support for SLI or Crossfire. While some users may be able to run the game with such set-ups there is no guarantee that it will work and any benefit you may encounter using 2 cards will be quite minimal.
