MX440 with shuttersglasses new driver does not support well ?
I think i "figured out" the problem with mx440 in win2K3 /winXP.
After Trying several divers , I got it work with forceware 44.03 and 3D driver 43.xx !
Does it mean Nvidia has abandon 3D Support for old video card(mX440 is so old?) or it just a bug in new drivers?
[quote name='Kenta' date='Jun 28 2005, 02:25 PM']I have 3 computers that I use.

My main one is an Athlon rig that is running a crappy old Geforce4 MX440 on AGP 4x with 128mb of VRAM.
My gaming/Media Center PC which is pushing a Geforce Personal Cinema FX 5700 running on AGP 8x with 128mb of VRAM.
Lastly is my server which is the worst of the bunch. It's where I back up both of the computers I just listed and the few others that my family owns. It is running a Geforce2 of some sort running at a stunning AGP 4x and with the godly 32mb of VRAM.
All of the computers in my house are running XP except for my gaming rig which is running Media Center Edition 2005.

I also recived my shuttersglasses. They're MSI Stereo^2-Glasses as the box reads, and I was told it should work with almost any Geforce card from the Geforce4 series to the newest ones.

The problem is this.
My main rig doesn't want to let me use anything else besides anaglyphic 3d glasses (red and green/blue/cyan) but even when I tried those nothing was working. The medical image showed up as two seprate images and when I tired the 3d test application it showed as normal 3d.

My gaming rig, which I was going to use them on mainly, doesn't want to upgrade to any new drivers. Since it is using 67.02 drivers I can't get a matching set of drivers for stereo 3d. When ever I try to install new drivers I keep getting a blue screen at startup.

Ironically, my server which I tested out of desperation worked! The only problem was that whenever the medical test was on it showed the two images flickering violently even without the glasses on. When I did have the glasses on they simply started up and then shut off right as the image began. I tried the 3d test application and the same thing happened again. The higher I set the seperation the brighter and more flicked up it got. So I stopped.

I'm stuck here guys. I can only keep them for 3 days before I have to send them in to get them back in time for the 7 day money back thing.

The glasses and stuff were new and unused by the way.

Another good news, 84.20 Forceware & 82.12 get work with my mx440,besides the DX7 test program is broken..
I test those driver ,the games work well, NFS ,tomb raider...but it never passed the DirectX diagnoses program.when I run dx 7 D3D test in the DX diagnoses program,the machine get reboot!
I kown new games almost word in DX8 or DX9 ,so i think it is a good news for who is using mx440 as me.

in order for my MX card to work with my 3d glasses i had to revert to 78.01 drivers. But things work apart from some ghosting !
