Hi, I've updated my driver to 180.70 for both of my 7900 GS cards (the driver can be downloaded from the laptopvideo2go website) and took the opportunity to install the 174.76 stereo driver as well.
The problem is that the nvidia control panel revert to his old version, so I now have the 3d stereo options but I've lost the control of sli and nHancer shows that it's disable.
I then tried the 177.83 stereo driver from this site, but the problem remained.
Meanwhile I've discovered the iZ3D driver and so don't need the stereo driver from nvidia.
I've uninstalled them from windows control panel "add/remove program" and even revert back to some older nvidia driver but the problem persist.
Could someone help me please?

(Vista 32 bit)

I feel like an utter idiot because in the end I discovered there was no problem, only lost the link to the "new" nvidia control panel which was in the desktop right click menu when I installed the driver. I was so used to it that I completly forgot there is one in the vista control panel, so I believed I was stuck with the old nvidia control panel found in the advanced display properties.
Sorry for the false alarm and the useless post :oops:

well maybe not I am going to be adding a card for SLI and TestingStereo with it. Now I am using the 163.75Drivers w/162.50 Stereo Drivers, I see no way to enable SLI or the NEW control Panel??

What do I have to do to change to the "NEW" control Panel to Enable SLI?? Using win XP Pro and a GeForce 7950GT. the NEW Control Panel option is NOT in when I right click the desktop it will take me Only to the OLD Control Panel??


EDIT: I Found out how to get to switch between the Old & New Control Panel with the Dragon utility?? Another way is to use nTune ;)

I will Only get the SLI config setting when I install the 2nd Card??
