Lost 3D in Window mode
When I updated to the latest drivers, I lost 3D support in window mode. Now I can't view any webpages in 3D or play games in 3D windowed mode. Is there some setting that I missed making that got reset and I forgot? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Any luck with this? On my setup I can view webpages in 3D(3DVisionLive) but the few Unity games I tried wouldn't play in 3D in windowed mode but I was able to get them to run in 3D by using a renaming script I came up with(renames to Wow.exe(&Wow_Data if exists) and back again) and posted in Helifax's OpenGL3D thread. You could try this and/or you could try using NVIDIA Inspector([url]http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Info/NVIDIA-Inspector.shtml[/url]) and adding it to a 3D profile such as World of Warcraft if they don't have profiles of their own.

I hear there's a white rabbit that's got time, you just have to catch him first! :) I guess I can contribute a lil something too ... here's a little snippet from something else I've been working on, just copy and paste into notepad and save as .bat, drop it into the directory with the exe you want to run. Then drag and drop the 'exe' onto the 'bat', it will rename the exe and any accompanying *_data folder if present(Unity games), it'll then run the exe and wait for you to exit and then restore everything back to the way it was ... [code]@ECHO OFF if [%1]==[] GOTO :EOF CALL :GLR %1 WOW .exe ECHO Restoring App ...& TIMEOUT /T 3& GOTO :EOF :GLR ECHO Renaming ^& Running App ... if EXIST "%~n1_Data" ( REN "%~n1_Data" "%2_Data"& REN "%~nx1" "%2%3"& %2%3 REN "%2_Data" "%~n1_Data"& REN "%2%3" "%~nx1" ) ELSE ( REN "%~nx1" "%2%3"& %2%3& REN "%2%3" "%~nx1" )[/code] Obviously this will only work with games that can be run using the 'renaming' method, some steam games won't work this way for instance. Everything else would have to be added to a profile manually using NVIDIA Inspector. For the lazy: [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/jnly10k7bsvfylb/_WowDrag%26Drop.bat[/url][/quote]

@ECHO OFF

CALL :GLR %1 WOW .exe
ECHO Restoring App ...& TIMEOUT /T 3& GOTO :EOF
:GLR
ECHO Renaming ^& Running App ...
if EXIST "%~n1_Data" (
REN "%~n1_Data" "%2_Data"& REN "%~nx1" "%2%3"& %2%3
REN "%2_Data" "%~n1_Data"& REN "%2%3" "%~nx1"
) ELSE (
REN "%~nx1" "%2%3"& %2%3& REN "%2%3" "%~nx1"
)
