Does Zephyroth Leopard 10.5.2 AMD Support SLI

Does Zephyroth Leopard 10.5.2 AMD Support SLI? I have two 6600GT installed on my motherboard. Please let me know if it is possible to enable the second video in addition to the first one or if they are both already enabled. Thanks. =)

No user has two video cards in their system?

the nvinjects I chose were the 128mb version for my 6600GT (1). don't know if Mac even supports SLI. Will have to google if thats the case.

[cite] eddie11c:its not about the install its about the nvinject/Nvidia kexts. Best bet is to search in google.

Have a little bit of some misfortunate news @ discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1351822&tstart=210

No SLI because Apple doesn't use NVIDIA chipsets, (which is understandable). Oh well, at least Mac OSX has better graphics management.

Any way I can use Vista and Mac together? Is it a risky process?

Why can't I use Boot Camp in the AMDintosh?

Author Update #3 @WinLinMac01 2008-02-20

Makes sense, will try,

[cite] eddie11c:You don't need bootcamp on a hackintosh, you can easily dual boot windows. Real Macs can't. There are lots of good tutorials out there on how to setup a dual boot system. Just have to search a bit.
