Not yet, maybe soon. Isn't sure but some rumors has it that vista stereoscopic drivers might arrive in december this year. Only rumors so far.
But so far you will have no luck with this card and true-3d though.
cheers

Not with nvidia drivers since these haven't been released yet. There are some pre-betadrivers at the mtbs3d site but more or less these are a no go for the 8800 series. Improvements can be found with lower series though. I know the 8800 is capable of doing stereo since i have played a few games with it using "kinddragons hook". I have an iz3d monitor and using the iz3d driver makes real nice 3d-experience with most games with the 8800 so i know it's not the card itself. Still (now silently) waiting for nvidia stereodrivers because i also want to play games on my passive projection rig. Since i want to use both the iz3d and the projector rig the 8800 is too unhandy (only works with iz3d-drivers) so i use a 7900gt to do the dirty work for now.
The 8800? it still lies in my bookshelf. I take it out once and a while to remove the dust from it. :P
Jokes aside: I really hope and wish nvidia works their way through their priority list to work out fresh new stereodrivers. I don't know why so few know about how easy it is to play in 3d. Everybody i showed really enjoy 3d and agrees it has a tremendous potential.
Let's see how the rumors turn out to be. I hope it involves stereodrivers for xp too. :D
