Half-Life 2 - black screen when 3D Vision is activated (GF 337.61 beta)
Hello everyone, after starting Half-Life 2, the complete screen went black and the normal background sounds of the menu were played. This Problem only occurs when the 3D Vision feature is enabled in the Nvidia driver. Driver is the 337.61 beta. Card is GTX 780, OS Win 8.1 x64. Tomb Raider (2013) or Bioshock Infinite for example are running perfectly. Any idea what's the reason for that?

Win 8.1 has had a lot of problems with 3d. This is probably another one.

Ok, sounds not good. Won't make the step back to Win 7. Hope they get such problems fixed soon. :(

Win 8 is fine, if you want to roll back to that. To be clear, I'm not saying this problem is definitely caused by 8.1. I'm around these forums a lot, and I haven't heard of this particular issue. I'm just saying 8.1 has caused a lot of other problems with 3d, so it could be related. Have you tried other Source games? Left 4 Dead, Episode 1/2, TF2?
