I'm using GeForce4 Ti 4600 from Creative at home without any problems.
Although I didn't use j3d stereo, I'm able to play games in stereo using the
official stereo drivers from nvidia. I have't patched any drivers, just
installed the stereo ones from the nvidia web site.

After upgrading from GeForce2 to GF4Ti, the average performance in terms of
fps of my app went from 15-20 to 100 fps, limited by the monitor refresh
rate.

Cheers,

Florin

I haven't had any problems with using Java3D with a GeForce4 Ti4200 on a
Win2K machine.

I think people have had trouble getting page-flipping stereo to work
natively with the card. But, this is because Java3D requires quad-buffer (a
front and back buffer for each eye) to natively support this kind of stereo
and only the Quadro versions of the NVidia cards have quad-buffer support.

I believe one could "upgrade" the older GeForce cards to Quadro by patching
one of the drivers, but I don't think this is possible with the GeForce4
cards and possibly a source of the troubles you heard.

I am presently using GeForce2 by Creative. I have noticed in some of the
threads that there are troubles with updating to GEForce4. One rumour is
that it will not work with J3D. 
Anyone using Windows 98 on an 800MHz Pentium and 256 Mb RAM with GEforce4
successfully with J3D?

I am thinking of updating.
