I managed to pick up a set of these glasses on the cheap and I'm now having all sorts of problems getting (working) drivers for it. I am using a Geforce 4 Ti 4200 with XP but can revert back to ME if needed. I have tried the nvidia stereo drivers but the infra red device does not send to my glasses. I read something about removing monitor pins but I didn't want to damage my monitor. I have heard people talking about the Wicked3d pro drivers perhaps these might help? If so do you know where to get them? All wicked 3d drivers seem difficult to get. I have also tried installing on ME using the wicked3d drivers but my graphiocs card is a AGP not a PCI so its not detected. The testing program however does work and I was really impressed with it however I am getting frustrated at not being able to play games with it. I have tried the activator method described by Stewart in another discussion but this only splits the screen through each eye. Which doesnt help. Is there any other activator programs??

Thanks for reading

You can try Win3D at .win3d.com I use Wicked3D with I-Art glasses. ATI AGP video card, Win98SE. Never heard about removing pins. Mine recently stop working for the wired glasses. Flipps the LCDs ok, but can't switch between R/L. Wired works fine. If the testing program works, all your hardware is ok, so it would be the driver, I don't use nvidea, but from what I've read seems alot of trouble. Try the Win3D. Good luck.

Are these the new H3D glasses with the Wicked3D drivers, or really an old Wicked3d Eyescream ?
For the old Wicked3d Eyescream, maybe this will help a little further...
First, win3d cannot 'detect' the glasses - you have to specify which glasses you use.
Second, try if you can activate the controller with the H3D Activator (not sure if it works in XP):
ftp://stereo3d.com/pub/h3dactivator14.exe
Try to activate 'Top&Bottom non-interlaced' with screen set to 800x600 at 60Hz refresh - this should work (although a sync-doubled desktop doesn't look very nice).
I've just tried my own old Eyescream controller again (after some time..) and verified the following limits:
- top-bottom will work only at vertical refresh rates of 75Hz or less
- page-flip and interleave will work only at refresh rates of 80Hz or higher
- it will not activate at all if the total horizontal scan rate is above ~72kHz
This means
- top-bottom works up to 1152x864x75Hz, 1280x1024x70Hz (not above 75Hz!)
- page-flip/interleave works up to 800x600x100Hz, 1024x768x85Hz (no higher resolution, not below 80Hz!)

Thanks Andreas

The orginal Wicked 3D Eyescream glasses work with your suggestion. I am currently using them with GTA Vice City however I do notice that every few seconds they go out of sinc with the game any suggestions? Thanks again for your time.
