How to check if your SLI is enabled?

[PwnageBot2000]

I ordered a computer with SLI 7900 GS's. Now, I see 2 cards in the case. When I go to properties, and advanced settings I see GeForce 7900 GS. I don't see the word SLI anywhere. Is my computer already hooked up to this? or must I further tinkle with the hardware? How can I check if it is SLI enabled?

Thanks.

Just having two graphics cards means you have SLI, I think.

Then you think incorrectly sir! SLI is a physical mode of the motherboard (there might be a BIOS setting as well but I never noted one). It requires a correctly positioned jumper to be in SLI mode. Said jumper is between the PCI-e slots. Consult your MoBo's manual if you have it. It will tell you the correct jumper position.
