You need to update your motherboard bios. Have fun! I recommend taking it to your local computer shop, it shouldnt be more than a half hour labor and 30 bucks.

I am a system builder and just built my first Vista 64 Ultimate on an SLI system for a customer. I did not know at the time that there were not any "released" drivers for Vista, 64 & SLI mode. Upon finding the "Beta" drivers from Nvidia's sight, I installed them and all seemed ok. Upon delivery of said system and setup, the first shutdown at the customers place manifested in a "Re-boot". I found that as soon as I had plugged in the second monitor into the formula I had an issue that I didn't test on my build bench. I removed the drivers and all is well again. Just waiting for working drivers from Nvidia so I can put the machine back into SLI mode for my customer. BTW, I have found Vista 64 to be solid as a ROCK! (other than Beta drivers).
