    Hello to all,
    I have an alienware m17x r4 120hz display.
    a few days ago I was forced to replace my gtx 660m because it was broken with a gtx 765m, and was mounted and I installed the modified drivers of @Mr. Fox .
    my problem now and I lost the voice "set 3d stereoscopic" from the nvidia control panel, what should I do to be able to use it?Do I have to do something on the monitor's edid? on the bios?and just a driver problem?
    thanks to those who will answer me

    The modded driver doesn't support that. So you would need to use a driver that does not have that support removed.

    thanks again @Mr. Fox .
    so can I try to download the normal nvidia drivers from the official website? or try the j95 drivers? Which of your downloads should I choose? I mount windows 7

    I use exclusively @j95 GeForce driver mods, so I would use his. Just follow the instructions closely with exception of deleting the 3DVision folders. If that doesn't work it might take a special mod, but I would try that first.

    If the stock NVIDIA drivers don't work, you can still use the @j95 INF mods and not delete the worthless crap folders.
