Help setting up Nvidia 3d vision
Posted: Fri Dec 21, 2012 12:39 pm
Hi, I'm new to 3d and I'm having problems actually getting my setup to work. I've got the following hardware:
Benq xl2420 120hz 3d vision ready monitor
GTX 670
Active shutter glasses with ir emitter (Not Nvidia)
I've got all the latest graphics, monitor drivers installed (310.70) plus all the 3d drivers
The problem is that when I go to enable 3d vision in the control panel and then follow the setup wizard, after selecting the option "Usb ir emitter and glasses" and then inserting the usb emitter I get the following error "The 3d vision USB driver is not installed". It then gives me a link to download it but when I click on it the NVidia website tells me that this driver is already included in the main driver download. So I've checked and it is already installed on my pc.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, I've double checked that I'm using the dual link dvi cable plugged in to the right ports, my screen refresh rate is at 120hz.
I guess it could be a problem with me using Unbranded shutter glasses but the website I bought them from claims that they work with NVidia 3d vision.
I've also installed tridef 3d software and cannot get that to work either. I get the message " the stereo display driver could not be initialized"
If I could just get my monitor and graphics card to display in 3d then I could actually test the glasses. Is there any way of bypassing Nvidia's setup wizard and just force enabling 3d vision??
It might be worth mentioning that I can get 3d to work with the crappy red and blue glasses but not with the shutter glasses. I think its called 3d vision discover.
I've spent hours looking online trying to find a solution but I can't find any info regarding this problem.
Any help would be much appreciated because at this point I'm pretty close to smashing up my whole system in rage.
Thanks
