I've made your mistake, you need to remove the NVidia Consumer Stereo driver -- the Quadro driver supports stereo natively. The Consumer Stereo driver is for GeForce graphics cards (ie., consumer graphics cards, not workstation graphics cards). The lastest Quadro driver is version 91.36. You still need to configure the Quadro graphics driver for stereo after you install it. Greg Couch UCSF Computer Graphics Lab
