Jul 4, 2018 5:11PM PDT
http://tinypic.com/r/24ovhuv/9 <-- here is the pic of the problem that i have. When i get in the game League Of Legends or when i try to enable Stereoscopic 3D from the Nvidia control panel this message appears. I don't know what to do is that a hardware problem or software. I hope that my TV is not faulty. I'm sorry for the mistakes i may have made. I'm not a native English speaker. Please help me i don't know what to do.

That appears to be from the TV.

So it means your TV doesn't understand the video signal you are sending to it. Ask the TV maker and Nvidia if your card, TV and settings work. I can't do any research due to the lack of details.

Thanks for the fast answer. The last day it was working just fine. Today i want to play some league and this thing pops up from nowhere. No changes to the TV, Computer or other thing haven't been made. Updated the nvidia drivers.. TV is Starlight 32'' and the graphics card is Nvidia 9600 GT. As i said it was working so fine and this happened. Thank you so much for the fast response!! Happy

That was enough.

I can only guess this is Windows 10 where drivers get updated without asking and excuse me if this sounds terrible but no, there were changes. You get to go back to what worked.

Use system restore and always on setups like this note how you got it to work with which version drivers as well as disabling driver updates in all versions of windows (or else.)

No more details required. You claim it worked so you have to retrace your steps to go back.

I am still with Windows 7 Ultimate. It was not working before and after the updated drivers. That i updated manually.

Many things update on their own. I can't guess why you didn't use system restore to when it worked rather than cause more damage with driver updates or other changes.

Because PCs can't be used without backups, it may be time to as they say, spin in a backup.

PS. The 9600 GT arrived in 2008.

Here's my view on this.

1. You are on some very dated hardware. You must keep the recipe of what worked in case any change in any app or OS on your machine breaks it.

2. The 9600 GT is a decade old. It could have failed in some way or there's a change that wasn't shared. I can't divine the answer here on such a setup other than "go back to when it worked or start over as you know it works."

Hey mate,

You still having trouble with this?

Would be good to get some more information about your PC's hardware so we can work out what side the problem may be coming from!

Nice and easy using dxdiag - In the search bar, just type “dxdiag” and your PC will automatically start searching for what we’re looking for.

You can find out how to work out your pc specs at that link as well if that's ^ not clear.
