Well, I've tried it and it doesn't solve anything.
The application is correct since it works great on the Onyx.
This was with a Quadro4 FX 2000. But I only had the machine for
one day. The refresh rate seemed to be the problem and the
only way to get something resembled to stereo was to crank the refresh
rate up to 140 Hz.
We got emitters with the PC to evaluate (and lots of other things) but
believe it
or not they weren't working. You had to twist the cables and so on. You
get the picture :).
Anyway, is there a way for Dan to share his hardware circuit with us?
