My gaming rig quad core qx 9650 and 2 9800gts in sli .
My problem is that the system dose not go into sli mode, and over heats one card?
This is the only game that does this, and i play alot of supreme commander, and there based on the same engine.
Anyone eles having this problem? or how to fix it?
I just had an hour long 1v1 against kira and lost, my 8800 gts 384mb caught on fire. Kira has agreed to replace my computer with the most expensive cutting edge alienware pc available.
Thanks kira buddy! 
Gaz avenge me! 
No problem here but then again I dont' have two video cards stacked up on each other. My Lian-Li case has more than enough room for sli though.
Possible solutions:
I'm afraid these and only these are your only options.
are you sure it's over heating? ie. some program specifically yelling that at you.
to me, not SLIing up properly is an issue outside of DG and SupCom.
when u bring up the test for the sli to see if your loading both cards in demigod it does not work.
In all my other games it works including supcom.
In supcom i load my cards 75-90% with no over heating issues, thats y i think there is a problem with this game and not with my computer.
i am using everest and ntunes for my temp readings
This must be a pre-configured piece of crap from dell. That only a Cobra or a Stonewood would recommend!!! Even if it was loading one card it should not be getting that hot. Do you got a kink in your hose!!! Did you check your coolant level you know you can't run it forever without adding unless it is a closed base system!!
P.S. No power at home and the Electric company doesn't know when It will be getting to me only 20,000 in my county without power!!! So tell Joe and Jason to practice.
Horse u should go clean your horses johnson and mind your business before i beat your ass in supcom when u get your power back lol
my video cards r air cooled butt head, i will tell Cobra and Stonewood that u r living by candle light ...lol
Hmmmm.
One of my machines is running an 8600GTS with a fairly aged CPU/MOBO combo (Pentium 805D, if you can believe it!). I've (correction, I HAD) been OC'ing the 8600GTS to 800mhz with no problems, and the performance increase was incredible - turning this old beast into q fairly decent gaming rig.
One night, I played a few games of Demigod, and then decided to try out this game called Atlantica. I don't know if it was some sort of driver initialization conflict (since both games are in Beta), but awhile into that session, my video glitched out hard, and continued to flicker and fragment on the desktop so I rebooted. The next night (I must be dense or something) I did the same thing, Demigod > Atlantica, and it glitched out again, requiring another reboot.
Now, the machine performs quite poorly in all games, acting as if the GPU is overheating. However, according the the MSI Dual Core Center, GPU temp rarely climbs over a rather repid 100°. But at that temp, I start dropping frames like crazy, and the only thing that I can think is that somehow the increased load burned out the PCI-E slot on the MOBO. The other odd thing about this - now streaming video (I watch my 30 Rock and Family guy on Hulu because I don't own a TV) won't play at fullscreen either, without horrible frame loss.
In one way, it's not the end of the world, since it's my second machine, but now it sucks. 
Maybe you could get your someones sausage fingers inside that rig and reseat those card this sounds like a typical operator error. Or maybe your machine is telling you that you are not man enough to handle this game
People like you should be banned from these forums for being poor citizens.
Thanks for the absolutely stupidest and most blithely insulting response I've ever gotten to an actual problem.
