XP 64bit stereo driver
  1 / 2    
Are there any plans for Nvidia to produce a 64bit stereo driver? The lack of stereo is the only thing stopping me from upgrading my operating system to take advantage of my AMD 64 4000+ chip I recently installed.

Same here. I in particular want working SLI drivers for Windows XP 64 bit so I can play my Far Cry in 64 bit (greater draw distance effects, details on rocks surfaces surf on beach etc) PLUS play them (eventually) with a 3D headset. I've downloaded the Far Cry 64-bit patches, now I want the driver support.

In other words, I want EVERYTHING; not just a half-assed partly-addressed solution, I want it all wrapped up and ready to go.

I temporary solution might be to implement a dual boot system, where winxp32bit would be sued for Stereo gaming and 64-bit for everything else. Atleast it is better than no stereo support at all or no 64-bit o/s at all.

It was the same in the old days when XP was just released. XP had less support for stereo than 64-bit does not... Infactm I still have WinME installed as dual boot... though havent used it in about a year :)

I only want 64 bit for my games and as I only want to play my games in stereo, I find it pointless to upgrade to win 64bit until a stereo driver comes out.
I mean, when you've played games in stereo, who wants to go back to boring old flat 2D.

I'd also like to register my interest in 64 bit stereo drivers.

I'm waiting on this one before I make a move to 64 bit. not point gaining a sliver of speed and an extra 2 gig of ram if I lose my 3D.

I am too waiting for 64-bit 3d stereo drivers that work with SLI also. I found a solution to play all the extra content with 3d stereo though, all i did was dual boot XP & XP x64 and install Far Cry with the AMD64 upgrade and exclusive content. I found that two new shortcuts to the game where made "Far cry (64 - Bit) which is in Bin64 folder" & "Far Cry (32 - Bit) which is in Bin32 Folder. So it got me thinking what if I try to run the 32 bit executable in normal Windows XP. To my utter surprise it worked all the extra content worked in Windows XP :D . Theres one catch you have to start from the beggining of the game to make sure the extra content works cause for some reason the old savegames that I had didn't show the extra content. I tried running it in 3d stereo also and wala it worked too /w00t.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':w00t:' /> .

I'm waiting those drivers too (x64). Not for Far Cry (stupid game IMHO).

I love far cry...anyway they should come out with them soon. Usually they put out a couple of beta video drivers right before they release a stereo. Just check guru3d.com for the video betas then eventually when they stop putting out betas they will release the final which will have a stereo driver also. Happens everytime.

Nvidia have officially released the new video drivers for x64, but there is STILL no stereo x64 driver available for download.

for what it's worth /wave.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wave:' /> - PLEASE Nvidia, get those stereo drivers out - we invest so much money and effort on our systems, please help us to enjoy the potential we have already paid for. :(

How can it be stupid? It has everything a fps game *should* have - wide expansive beautiful environments to roam in, a variety of vehicles to use, weapons are cool, the gameplay is a nice mixture of stealth and attack at the right moments... the jungle is MADE for 3D...what exactly is your objection to this game?
