    Any thoughts or ideas.

    Hello.
    Back at the end of June I bought new machine .
    Processor = Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700 CPU @ 3.40GHz (8 threads, 4 cores, 3.4 GHz) (L1 Cache 128 KB) (L1 Cache 128 KB) (L2 Cache 1024 KB) (L3 Cache 8192 KB)
    Memory = 15.9 GB
    Video = NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (4.0 GB RAM) (nvlddmkm 21.21.13.7254)
    Video = NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (4.0 GB RAM) (nvlddmkm 21.21.13.7254)
    Display = \\.\DISPLAY1 (3840 x 2160, 32-bit, primary, 0 x 0)
    Sound = High Definition Audio Device (hdaudio 10.0.14393.0)
    Sound = ASUS Xonar DSX Audio Device (cmudaxp 0.0.8.1823)
    Sound = NVIDIA High Definition Audio (nvhda64v 1.3.34.15)
    Sound = NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device (Wave Extensible) (WDM) (nvvad64v 1.2.40.0)
    Sound = NVIDIA High Definition Audio (nvhda64v 1.3.34.15)

    Yesterday will playing an activity for about an hour , all of a sudden it froze and kicked me out of the activity, when I looked at the report it said that I didn't have enough memory ?? I have never had this happen before in all my computers ? and this one is the best that I have had.

    I called the place where I bought it, and they thought that it might be having the two video cards ? any truth to that or has does any one else have two video cars with no problems ?

    Thanks for any help in advance.

    AFAIK OR does not support two video cards. You might try posting your OR log, perhaps something else (too many missing sound files?) is causing the crash.

    Do you have the Options>General>Large address aware checked?

    What version of OR are you using?

          Hi,
          Sorry for the delay in my reply.
          I went into the NVidia control panel and where the SLI configuration is checked off the Maximize 3D performance instead of Disable SLI and it seems to be working .
