I have the gtx485 sli in my new laptop. When I hook it up to my 3d ready monitor and run the setup wizard, I only get the blue triangle. The green octagon is missing. Also the left eye cant see anything but some ghosting of the left eye image. I thought it was a sink issue of the laptop display interfering with 120 hz refresh of the 3d monitor so I unlinked them in the nvidia control panel, the problem remains. I have not test to see if it is a bad dual-link cable as I only have one. I am running new whql 270.xx drivers. Anyone know what is causing this.

Hi
A few questions:
- Are you using a DL DVI cable that came with the monitor?
- Are you setting the external monitor is the primary display?
- Please specify the exact driver you are using.

I've run into the same problem. The laptop is a Sager NP7280 with two 485M in SLI mode. To answer your questions:
1. Yes, I'm using the DL DVI cable that came with the monitor.
2. The external monitor is the only display that's set, I disabled the laptop display.
3. 275.33.
Running Windows 7 x64, all current updates as of the time of this posting. External monitor is a Planar SA2311W. The laptop has a native dual link DVI port. On the 3D glasses, the left eye is dark and the right eye is bright. From what I can tell, the glasses do seem to be switching, but the sync is off, causing the left eye to look dark all the time.

An update: I decided to try the Nvidia driver provided by the laptop vendor. The control panel recognizes it as 266.96. I then installed 3D Vision driver version 267.76 and now 3D Vision works properly with the 485M SLI.
