    The red stuff appears right away, but only when in fullscreen mode. When the game is not full screen (but stretched to 99% of fullscreen) it plays normal, if maybe a bit slower than on a single GTS.

    The cards have alot of space inbetween them.

    Sounds like a driver issue again. I assume you have the latest?

    Yep.

    Newest nForce 680 drivers
    Newest Forceware (Dec 20) for 8800GTS
    Newest mobo BIOS
    All Vista system updates.

    Same red thing happens in all 3games I've sofar played (Company of Heroes, Crysis and Gears of War) but only in fullscreen mode. Performance is also....not something I expected. (having to run Crysis on Medium with THIS heavy gear?)

    i play crysis on medium (some settings on high) with my ati 1950 pro. but i am running at 1280x1024.
    so depending on your resolution, it should run better.

    edit: with vista though you are also running on dx10 so it will be slower still.
