I can't get my second GPU working

Hi,
I have just purchased a new pc with 2 GTX 580's and a licience of Octane.
I have been playing around with the demo version as I wait for my licience to arrive
and when I have no scene loaded I seem to be able to enable both cards but as soon as I load a demo scene the second card
is always marked as inactive and the add button is greyed out.

I am running win 7 x64 and have the latest cuda and video card drivers installed.

Thanks,
Josh

that button is greyed out because there is already a scene imported, yes, that´s right.
Try this: With no scene loaded, enable both cards in the settings (just press the "add" button), than go to the node graph, right-click - and choose the mesh node to import your obj.
