Andrew:

Thank you for your suggestion.  I have been working with J3D stereo image
for at least two years.  When I use Geforce II Max card and patch the
nv4_mini.sys file with a SoftQuadro program, the stereo images are rendered
correctly.  However, you know the GeForce II is already obsolete.  I have to
explore the availability of GeForce 4.  But I have not got it working yet.
Could anyone who has a  successful experience of running J3D stereo image
please give us some information about what cards can be used for J3D STEREO
IMAGE?  If there is a trick (such as patching nv4_mini.sys), please also
tell me.  Hi, it has been a long pain about the graphic card with J3D
stereo.  How can we expect a solution of it?

Thank you a lot!

G.B. Liu
