Have you tried connecting the graphics card to the 3D vision emitter with a 3pin mini-DIN to 3.5mm stereo cable (as well as the USB)? The USB connector is only really meant for use with the GeForce cards, the stereo cable giving a 'better' connection (although you still need the USB connection for power).
In Europe, the necessary cable is only supplied in the professional 3D vision for Quadro kits, not with those originally sold. There is a wiring diagram for the cable on the nvidia forum if you don't have it (but the search function isn't working at the moment, so I can't give a link) Quoting Emiliano Ippoliti <e.ippol...@grs-sim.de>: > Dear Users, > > in my University I have an hardware system formed by: > > 1 - PC with Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 graphics card with DVI port. > 2 - 64-bit Operating system Windows 7 Professional > 3 - Projector ACER H5360 DLP 720P (3D ready) connected to the PC by > HDMI/DVI cable > 4 - Nvidia GeForce 3D Vision Emitter connected to the PC by USB > 5 - Nvidia GeForce 3D Vision glasses > > I configured everything in order to use PyMOL stereoscopic > visualization and it works perfectly. > > Recently, we bought a 120Hz LCD: the ACER GD245HQ.
