Hey guys
I should start off by saying that I've been using this string in the past with-out any problems what-so-ever. Thanks for that!
Recently I had to switch from booting off of a thumb-drive to iboot/multibeast user dsdt so that I could register my copy of avid media composer. I'm on a Gigabyte UD7 rev1 board.
When I ran through the procedure for dual video cards(multiple times) I found that I could not get both cards working. I'm not exactly sure what the problem is.
I am trying to get 2 identical geforce 9500gt cards working(I've had them working together for months before switching to multibeast).
Here's the plist I ended up with for the cards:

Here is the com.apple.Boot from my Extra folder(There are no nv kexts in the extensions folder within the Extra folder):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I tried removing the: <key>GraphicsEnabler</key <string>Yes</string> but it didn't help.
Finally I have the following NV kexts in my S/L/E folder:
NVDAN40Hal
NVDAN50Hal
NVDAReswman
NVSMU
