is
necessary.

not
function
properly
in
a
stereo
pixel
format.
• Stereo
viewing
requires
additional
onboard
graphics
memory
and
may
not
be
available
under
all
resolutions.
You
may
want
to
reduce
the
resolution
or
color
depth
if
you
have
problems
viewing
in
stereo.
Tip:
If
the
stereo
or
overlay
features
do
not
work
properly,
you
may
want
to
try
setting
different
screen
resolutions
and
refresh
rates
until
you
arrive
at
a
setting
or
combination
of
settings
for
better
results.
Tips:
If
you
are
encountering
problems
with
stereo
viewing
with
shutter
glasses,
you
may
want
to
experiment
with
different
refresh
rate
settings
for
your
monitor.
For
example,
your
shutter
glasses
will
not
work
on
a
flat
panel
set
to
a
very
low
refresh
rate.
