Have system with (3) 8800GTXs in 3-Way SLI using TH2Go Digital Ed. and when I start up Crysis at any resolution the monitors go black and they cycle "no signal". After about 3 cycles of “no signalâ€

It is probably trying to run in an incorrect res, try this from tweakguides.com:

"System.cfg
This file doesn't exist by default, so you need to create it by going to your Program FilesElectronic ArtsCrytekCrysis directory, right-clicking on an empty spot and selecting 'New>Text Document'. Then rename this .txt file to System.cfg (not System.cfg.txt). By default Crysis looks for the presence of this file each time it starts, and if the file exists and contains valid commands, they will be automatically executed as the game loads up. As such, this file is the perfect place to store most of the commands you wish to apply to Crysis at startup, particularly low-level engine commands."

And add this in:
"r_Height= [value] - This command controls the height of your screen resolution in pixels, and when combined with the r_width= command, can be used to set a custom resolution if you wish."
use 1280x1024 or the full TH2Go 3840x1024

Edit: any joy on your 3SLI? all OK now?

WOW that totally fixed the problem, thanks!!!

An additional note: When I first setup this new system, I couldn’t get the current version of the nVidia drivers to give me the option to configure SLI in nVidia Control Panel. To get the SLI configuration option to even show up, I had to use specifically v169.25 of the driver. But during my many attempts to fix the “no signalâ€

That mod looks SICK!!!! I'd like to see how much dead space/bezel area I could gain by doing the same. I like how he mounted the panels to clear plexiglass etc. Looks very nice!
