    Is there a driver that will let you have sli and enabled while running to screens at once?

    Sli is dual Nvidia Graphics cards, it is completely independent of the number of monitors and would run with dual monitors i believe.

    it does not work. SLI can only use one monitor either the M1730s LCD or one external source. It is unable to use both at the moment. Ive already tried it with a DVI To HDMI hook up to my Samsung 40 Inch LCD. Can"t display on both monitors just one
