Sharp LL-151-3D and multiple displays? 3D not enabled w/ multiple displays
I just bought a Sharp LL-151-3D display (they're on clearance) and I have it connected to my 7800GT which has dual DVI outputs and the 77.77 stereo drivers. Problem is, when I have both my main monitor enabled and the Sharp, the 3D does not work. (No "color interleaved" display appears - it looks like regular "2D" 3D.)

Has anyone been able to get the 7x.xx+ stereo drivers to work in this configuration?

Also a more general driver question: Has anyone been able to get their games to run on just the [i]secondary[/i] display? (Since I would like to have my main monitor be my primary display and dedicate the Sharp to all stereo 3D gaming.)

Try switching which monitor is the primary in the nVidia GUI... like change it from [1][2] to [2][1] in the little picture. That's worked for me in the past. As a last resort, try the previous driver version.

This only happens with the Sharp stereo mode selected. If I switch to shutter glasses, etc, it works but I don't see any technical reasons why it shouldn't with the Sharp display mode.
