My 3D emitter has gone mad!
Hope you guys can help me as love playing games in 3D and right now I can't! So I have a been playing 3D games for a while now I initially had a issue with my emitter not coming on at all, I have an Asus VG278H and I found this monitor has a common issue where the emitter will not initiate but solved that by pulling the power cord with it switched on (not ideal but nothing else works) So I noticed last week that the emitter light would come on when I start Chrome and stay on weather I leave Chrome or not, this wasn't a problem for me as the emitter was still working with games but now it is not. Initially I switched 3D off and on again in the Nvidia control panel and this solved the problem but for the last two days this has not worked and to be honest I'm not really sure what to do next, do I need to uninstall and reinstall graphics drivers? This is the only other thing I can think of but wanted to consult you clever guys first! Brief system spec: AMD 8150 Geforce 670 OC 8MB RAM Windows 8.1 Cheers guys.

Thanks Pirateguybrush, I read through that post but no one else seems to have the problem that 3D only working with Chrome as I do...

My bad, I skimmed a bit. Reinstalling graphics drivers is always a good early step.

Re installed drivers, Tried a few games I like in 3D... Crisis 2 nothing, half life 2 plays in 3D but crashes after about 30secs gameplay its never crashed on me before. Is there anything else I can try?

Something very strange going on, just tried half life in 2D and its crashing too... now I'm completely confused, any ideas?

Windows 8.1 is known for being buggy with 3d, I'd really suggest rolling back to 8 if you can.
