I have given up the battle to make both my 8800GTS video cards work at the same time. So I took one out. Every thing works great now. So I fired up my favorite online game World of Warcraft and the graphics look great, however I think the video cards fan is not ramping up when the card is producing intense graphics. I'm getting the degridation look that you get from a card that is getting too hot. Is there a way to make these cards fan speed ramp up like they do with the Windows drivers? btw I have the latest "drivers" from the 9800 install that AquaMac put together. Sam

Hmm, this is a problem with a number of nv cards. Yours is one that falls into this category. Nvidia got round this problem in a dirty way by updating the windows drivers instead of the firmware. The bad news is that Apple drivers do not increase the fan speed on these cards. The only ways to solve the problem is to remove one of the 4 wires to the fan (sorry can't remember which one) the downside of this is your fan runs at full tilt all the time.
