:WWTH2Go

with this new driver is possible to discover 3D vision @ 5040*1050 with a simple red/cian glasses ...

I tried this with L4D and work fine...

after the wizard in the driver all game supported work in 3d , ctrl+t to disable
:D

I've actually been playing L4D with 3D vision for a while; but when I switched from 8800 GTXs to 285s, L4D suddenly will not run on my machine. For some reason, L4D wants to run at some odd resolution on start up and causes my 285s to stop working.

I've uninstalled and removed all directories for L4D and Steam; even did a fresh Windows 7 install; and L4D still does it.

No problems with any other games; including Batman and Crysis which are definate processor and GPU hogs; running at 3840x1024.

The odd thing, L4D will run when I just plug one monitor into a card without the Matrox TH2Go. So L4D is loading a config file from somewhere that is giving it bad resolution data or something.

Me too same problem , I found a solution :

L4D will not run if the desktop resolution is not 1680*1050 (the game run but the screen is blank) so put this resolution without confirming and start the game set at 5040*1050(This should be done every time you play).

K two more games confirmed by me to run at 5040x1050 with DirectX 10 and the new 191.07 Nvidia drivers :

Gears of War



Crysis Wars

Not quite understanding what you mean. And mine isn't running 5040x1050 currently anyway.

Do you mean setting the resolution in the Shortcut?

What's the command to do that?

-h 3840 -v 1024

UPDATE: Yep, that worked. -w 3840 -h 1024

In game I checked the Video settings and for some reason it was set to 1270 x 700.
