Unable to set up 3D after upgrading drivers
Hi all, I have had this problem for several months. I am running v337.50 drivers fine and 3D works 100%. When I upgrade to the latest drivers (I've tried about four different versions including the latest v347.09) and go to set up Stereoscopic 3D in nVidia Control Panel, the IR Transmitter does not go bright green when pressed, so I can't proceed and the 3D setup fails with this error: --------------------------- GeForce 3D Vision Setup Wizard Error --------------------------- Error in Stereo Driver, NvAPI_Stereo_IsActivated() returned 0 after stereo was enabled by default with Settings->setDefaultStartupMode(true). --------------------------- If I try to run a 3D game it just runs in 2D, obviously, because 3D is not set up. I've tried uninstalling all software and all hardware - same issue. If I restore my PC (System Restore) back to v337.50 it all works fine again, so it can't be the hardware, cables etc. My specs are: Windows 8.1 64bit 16GB RAM GeForce 780ti 3D Vision Benq XL2411T monitor Can anyone think of any solutions? Cheers.
Hi all,

---------------------------

Error in Stereo Driver,
NvAPI_Stereo_IsActivated() returned 0 after stereo was enabled by default with Settings->setDefaultStartupMode(true).

If I try to run a 3D game it just runs in 2D, obviously, because 3D is not set up. I've tried uninstalling all software and all hardware - same issue. If I restore my PC (System Restore) back to v337.50 it all works fine again, so it can't be the hardware, cables etc.

My specs are:
Windows 8.1 64bit
16GB RAM
GeForce 780ti
3D Vision
Benq XL2411T monitor

Can anyone think of any solutions?

Cheers.

There appears to be major problems with the newer Geforce drivers. Refer to this thread: [url]https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/798087/3d-vision/-bug-report-3d-vision-driver-is-broken-with-release-344-75-onwards-including-347-09-/[/url]

Thanks for the link. I was wondering if wiping my PC and starting again with a new driver would work, but it doesn't sound like it.
