Ive got a bit of a problem with my 4 Way build.

I want to run 2 single pcb 295s for quad sli and a 285 for physx but when I try to boot it gets to Verifying DMI Pool Data and then resets instead of going to the windows splash screen.

If i disable any one card using the jumpers it boots no problem, but wont boot with all three cards enabled.

Hardware is i7 920 D0, X58 SLI 4 Way, 2 Zotac 295s, 1 rev A evga 285, Silverstone ST1500 PSU, 12GB Corsair Doms, 2 128GB Gskil Titan SSDs

OS is W7 64

Ive got 295s in slots 1 and 3 and have tried the 285 in slots 6 and 7 without luck.




Ive tried: 
Selecting "reset configuration data" in bios 
Cleraring CMOS 
Flashing to latest BIOS  
Latest Nvidia Drivers
Powering the 285 off another PSU 
Fresh install of W7 64 
Fresh install of Vista 32 
8800 Ultra in Slot 7 and Slot 6

Now im starting to run outa ideas

    Holy crap.... glad you got that figured out but uhh...

    WOW. You even have the full cover front and back PCB blocks for your 295s.... That build must have been fricken expensive. I must say it looks absolutely beautiful. Is there a log of your build at all? Could we get some more pictures? I am also interested in your temperatures on all those cards. 

    Also.... all that horsepower and a stock intel heatsink? Talk about a bottleneck. You need to watercool that CPU and overclock the out of it to keep up with Quad-SLI.
