    Short version: I want to use nvidia geforce 3d vision, to play 3D games with anaglyph glasses, on a Sony Vaio laptop with GeForce 8400M GS. Can anyone point me to the correct or "best" drivers to use?

    Long version: I have a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ75AGN. It came with Windows Vista but I downgraded to XP using the official downgrading workflow. It has a hybrid graphics card system with some Intel on-board chip, and a GeForce (specs see below).

    I tried the drivers from the GeForce_3D_Vision_CD_v1.04, but apparently they work only with Vista but I am using XP. I was searching for other drivers but I am confused which drivers to select (ForceWare, Detonater, nvidia 3d, lolwut) , and I do not want to install drivers where I don't know at all what I'm doing.

    I'd be thankful if someone could point me to the right drivers so that I can enable anaglyph stereo.

    GeForce 8400M GS, 256 MB memory
    curently installed driver:
    ForceWare version: 156.66
    Video BIOS: 60.86.57.00.18
