That's correct. SLI on a stick. However, my M5A97 is also incompatible with SLI, and it works just fine (in order to get SLI support you have to run an 99x chipset)

SLI support via chipset was never an issue because they were bridged internally via a NF200 chip.

So, that should not matter one bit.

Okay, problem fixed. I went into the BIOS and did as Soullessone suggested. Thanks for the tips, both Souls!
