Hello ya'll
I have a GF 690 + asus vg278h, always very happy with it. super to play on 3d, well, maybe some more real 3d ready games would be nice, but hey...
Since a day or two i have a small problem. I like borderlands 2, and i like it in 3d. I used the common helix fix to make it a lot better in 3d. But sometimes borderlands 2 crashes, black screen, but audio still seem to work. The only thing i can do is go to task manager and close it down as it states that it is not responding.
The strange thing is that when i start borderlands 2 again, 3d vision has changed to red/blue setting. Looking in the nvidia panel i cannot select 3d vision with my vg278gh anymore (only 3d vision discover). After a restart of the system, i can go in nvidia panel again and select "asus 120 hz 3d screen" again as it is back in the list.
I had this same situation once before, cannot recall what game it was (different game than borderlands 2). Didn't found any solution then either.
I have the latest driver installed, 310.90 now.
Could this crash be because i use the helix thing to fix the 3d in borderlands? Is it the nvidia driver itself? Does any of you have been confronted with the same error situation? Is this problem already known or discussed because i don't seem to be able to find info on a kinda similar error situation...
thx in advance.

Try the USB emitter in a different USB port, preferably an empty row. That sounds more like your problem I think. I've never had Borderlands crash with the Helix patch

on my asus vg278h screen the emitter is build in... It is built in the top of my screen and there is no usb cable running to the screen...

It's nothing to do with the Helix fix.. Is your card overclocked?
I've had the same problem in that sometimes after a driver crash I've had to reboot to enable proper 3d vision. It's as though the displays aren't being detected properly.

No, not at all... i run everything at standard speeds...
When you look at the problem, yes, you might conclude that after the crash the system or driver doesn't detect my screen anymore...

Strange. It wasn't an accusation by the way, overclocking can be a heated subject :-)
I have three screens connected in surround, plus I have a 3d projector connected. It can behave in a funny way sometimes, but a reboot always fixes it. In that respect, I think it's a 'weakness' of the drivers.
My 690 is generally stable, but I've had issues in far cry 3 and mechwarrior online before the latest patch. It's nothing to do with heat, it's as though the 6xx series and driver can become unstable if the boost speeds go too high. I know for a fact that system RAM (clock timings) can cause instabilities, even though most find that hard to believe.
Presumably if you can afford that setup, you have a decent power supply as well?
Oh also, there have been reports of people with built in emitters on that model having problems. Apparenty a cold reset of the monitor (i.e. pull the power) can help.

hey, no offense taken, m8... I do not overclock, never have. I can understand why some do. If someone would like to push hardware to see how far it would go, knock yourself out. But i never did that. Personally, i don't really see the point in it, i mean, a 690, that would obliterate every game today, so why overclock. But again, i can understand some like to push, it's a hobby like any other...
My full pc specs are :
-Intel DX58SO2 mainboard
-Intel i7 990x
-12Gb ddr3 ram (kingston)
-2 x intel X25 80gb ssd in raid
-850W PSU
-pc case is custom made and very well ventilated (200mm side fan in, 120mm top fan out, 120mm back fan out)
I play farcry 3, batman AC, AC3(not with 3d), and so many more without any problems. If it was a psu problem, wouldn't those pose a problem as well? I would think they are at least evenly demanding on the GPU and CPU on power demands.
I haven't tried a cold reset of my monitor yet... hmm, good suggestion... i have to try that next time i encounter the error...
Where did you find people with a vg278h having problems with the built in emitter?

Hey, free performance is always good :-)
I've overclocked my card by +50 on the GPU (boost is normally about 1120) but memory overclocking is great on these cards. I'm up to 7200Mhz, no issues. Running +100 on the GPU was ok in every game except far cry 3.
Try enabling Vsync, or at least use adaptive Vsync. Without Vsync, some games can hit an FPS value so high that it stresses the card too much and can make things unstable. It's not a heat problem as such, but I think some parts of the silicon (in conjunction with the drivers) become unstable when overloaded.

Yes, free preformance is always good... But i don't think i would see the difference between 100 fps and 120 fps. IMHO i think no one sees the difference. But hey, like i said, if you want to overclock, knock yourself out.
I've heard of games or cards spitting out too many frames and thus causing problems... I always put vsync on in every game... i think that would make the card not spitting out more then 120fps, no?

Yes, Vsync will limit the framerate to the refresh rate of your display.
For me, overclocking does make a significant difference. 3d is twice as demanding as 2d, and any boost in performance is welcome. To be honest, with 3d surround, you probably want 3x4GB GTX680's if money was no object.
Good luck sorting your problem. As you say, if it's only one game then your system is probably fine.
Regarding the emitter, anything I've read will either have been on here, MTBS3D or 3d vision blog. To be honest, I might have been thinking of the BenQ XL2420TX though, which isn't available to us Europeans. In any case, people have definitely had issues with built in emitters.
