Troubleshooting

What should I do if 3D images are 

not displayed or the 3D effect is less 

pronounced on my computer 

screen?

  When you view 3D images on your 

computer, make sure the 3D indicator light 
on the computer turns on.

  When you view 3D images on your 

computer, press the 3D button on the 
computer.

  Make sure you are using the software that 

supports the content currently playing. You 
can check if the software supports the 
content in The list of software used for 

the 3D function (page 8).

  Click 3D Function and 3D Display 

Function Settings on the VAIO Control 

Center to check if the 3D function is 
enabled.

  Make sure the playback window of the 

software is active and displayed on the top 
of the screen, and press the 3D button 
again.

  Make sure there is no obstacle between the 

3D sync transmitter and the 3D glasses.

  Make sure there is no heat or light source or 

infrared communication device near the 3D 
sync transmitter.

  Exposing the 3D sync transmitter to direct 

sunlight may cause malfunction.

  If you lie on your side or tilt your head while 

viewing 3D images, the 3D effect may be 
less pronounced or the color of the images 
may change.

  Charge the battery of the 3D glasses.

  Make sure the 3D glasses are turned on.

  Perceived 3D effect may vary from person 

to person.

  While you are viewing 3D images under low 

temperature, the 3D effect may be less 
pronounced.

  If 3D images from your computer are not 

displayed on a 3D-capable display (such as 
a 3D TV), display the initial settings wizard 
for NVIDIA 3D Vision on the TV screen and 
complete the initial settings (page 11).

What should I do if 3D images do 

not play smoothly on my 3D TV 

connected to the HDMI output 

port?

  Check the HDMI output resolution settings 

on the computer. If the screen resolution is 
set to 1080(3D), 3D images may not play 
smoothly. Change the screen resolution to 

720(3D) in Refresh Rate Setting with the 

VAIO Control Center, and then try again.

How do I disable the 3D function?

  You can disable the 3D function with VAIO 

Control Center. Open VAIO Control 

Center, and click 3D Function and 3D 

Display Function Settings.

Why does the message about 

NVIDIA 3D Vision in green appear 

on the bottom-right corner of the 

playback window?

  The message about NVIDIA 3D Vision may 

appear on the bottom-right corner of the 
playback window during playback 
depending on the software you are using. 
You can show/hide the message by 
pressing the Ctrl+Alt+Insert keys.
