You do not want to use the FTW BIOS.

You want the "S20W" Bios for the non ftw board. Also the ISO file name is "l750S20W.IS0" I750S20W.iso

Hi, I want to thank you for this Bios update. At first I was a little hesitant as I had never updated my Bios in this fashion, but it has solved my issue of not being able to install the Windows 64bit OS. Tyler

Will this bios update allow me to run my q9450 on my 122-YW-E173-TR?

Well, From what I can tell the Q9450 is compatable with the 750i SLI. So, I would say yes it would.

Did you setup the timings, voltage, and speed after the flash?

You can check the sli status, and set it up in the nvidia control panel. You have a 32-bit operating system, it can only address 4gb of ram total. 512mb is set aside for the os. And you have to take into account your video card ram. So 4gb -- 1.5gb (system and video ram) = 2.5gb available. You need a 64-bit OS to see all your ram.

But probably does show a physx option right? I misread your other post. The 8800gt and the 9800gtx cannot run sli together. The only option it will give you is to run the 9800gtx as your main card and the 8800gt as a physx card, or vice versa. But the 9800gtx will give you more performance as the main card.
