Cannot enable 3D with 680 and Asus VG278H
I am going crazy here, googling all night and tried every little tweak I could find. I have SLI 680's and surround with 3 x Asus VG278H. I know the 680 and the displays are fully vision ready (even says so in the Nvidia control panel). Brand new build, clean win 7 install, latest 314.07 drivers clean installed with all the 3D components. If I click on the "enable stereoscopic 3d" checkbox or the "run setup wizard" I get the same error: "Geforce 3D Vision Wizard has stopped working" Things I have tried: Both with surround on and off (single screen and triple screen) Both SLI and single card along with single monitor above unplugging monitor resetting monitor different monitor (all three are identical and I get the same error no matter which one) single monitor off each card one at a time 60 hz and 120 hz I do not suspect that it is a video card or monitor problem because I double checked with both GPUs and with all three displays. I feel like it almost has to be software related but I'm not sure what else to do on a clean OS install with newest drivers. I do not have the error in the monitor OSD where it says that the IR transmitter is not detected, but everything 3D is greyed out, I assume because I am only running in 2D right now. Please help!

Things I have tried:
Both with surround on and off (single screen and triple screen)
Both SLI and single card along with single monitor above
unplugging monitor
resetting monitor
different monitor (all three are identical and I get the same error no matter which one)
single monitor off each card one at a time
60 hz and 120 hz

I do not suspect that it is a video card or monitor problem because I double checked with both GPUs and with all three displays. I feel like it almost has to be software related but I'm not sure what else to do on a clean OS install with newest drivers.

Please help!

I got it! EVGA Precision is one of the very few "essential" programs that I have installed at this point, it was causing that enable 3D crash, I think from the OSD conflicting with the 3D software. Once I exited EVGA I could enable 3D and it worked great! Once 3D is enabled EVGA works fine, including the OSD during 3D. I tested it in Crysis 3. Leaving this post here in case it helps anyone else out.

Glad you got this fixes Zyvoximus, and a huge thank you for coming on and posting your solution for others! nothing worse then a hit and run ;-)
