Hi, I have recently bought a new 3d vision monitor to replace a faulty old one, this is an Acer GN246HL. After setting it up I installed the latest nvidia drivers (411.70) and then went to try the 3d vision setup. During the setup, the glasses blinked at a point, after it detected my monitor, but after I clicked next, the glasses just stopped, I could not see 2 images. The monitor itself detected it was in 3d mode and all, but it showed me a simple image, closing an eye or another did not affect anything. I tried fixing it, disconnecting and reconnecting and rebooting and all that, nothing worked, but whenever I pressed ALT+TAB to do something, the pyramid would light up bright green and the glasses would go back to working.
So, I lied to the setup, pretended it worked, and it allowed me to enable stereoscopic 3D. I then tried the preview pack, and it showed me 2 images, did not work on 3D at all. Pressing the pyramid button did nothing. I then opened up a game, and it worked instantly, as soon as I pressed the pyramid button. Seems to be working like normal, but on the preview pack and setup, it will not work at all.
Am I doing something wrong in the setup? Is there a bug in this driver version for "static" 3d content? Anyone have any ideas that would help me fix this? Currently, it's not so bad, since I can game with it, but I would like it to work thoroughly.

Hi DaniloTrin. Long time hey.
I wouldn't bother with this if I were you. As long as its working. If other problems occur I would suggest contacting nVidia directly about this bug.
If using Windows 10, there are known issues with completing the 3D setup wizard. There is a batch file available in the forums to make it painless.
If using W7 or even 10, if you encounter problems, a lot of times they can be due to driver install glitch/error, the best option is to reinstall the drivers using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller)
DDU is stickied in the Nvidia "Driver" sub forum
