FYI the green bands illustrate how the rendering workload is divided up
between the two video cards. The feature was probably checked by mistake in
the nVidia driver panels.
The game is probably not playing nice with that driver build. Ask your
friend to force a different SLI method (use AFR instead of split-frame
rendering) in the presets.
