metro 2033 only one gpu ?

hello
i have the r2 version and in metro 2033 the second card dont work .
is there a fix to this ?

 

It's working fine here. How you know it's not working?

I know mine is working by enabling "show crossfire status icon", and it shows during the game.

 

where is "show crossfire status icon",
i use GPU-z and see the two card reading .

 

Goto Catalyst Control Center

Click on Options, drop down to preferences

Then right click the ATI icon on task bar

Pick first GPU, Crossfirex settings, Show Crossfire Status Icon.

Chances are, you had it running with cross fire already. I'm still wondering how you were claiming the xfire wasn't on during the game.

 

will in gpu-z i see the second card at idle speeds and normal temp
while i play that it

 

And what does the xfire status say with my instruction?

 

it says enabled in all of my games
strangely in gpu-z now i see all the card working and also there is actuly improvment in the fps of metro 2033 .
mybe bc i changed the settings in ati catalyst to application setting ?
anyway thank you very mutch ACHlLLES

i have another question , i want to oc the cards from the bios but i never did it with two cards . is there a guid here ?

 

There's no option to OC GPU's in the bios. Perhaps you should look into what your system is capable of by reading manual.

Most M17x owners OC for bench purposes, and I doubt there's huge improvement in game play so lower the settings a bit if you need to, and play on.

Metro 2033 is a very demanding game btw.

 

well i didn't buy the most powerfull laptop to play on lower than max
i will search for the way thnx

 

The most powerful laptop doesn't mean it will play every game at max settings x).
