What type of stereo are you trying to do? That will determine how you setup the card.

If you're using active stereo with shutter glasses or a HMD that supports active stereo, which is what you are usually talking about when you say OpenGL stereo (alternating between the left eye frame and right eye frame), then the configuration is performed within the NVidia control panel.

In the latest version of the NVidia control panel there is a "Manage 3D settings" task. On the right you'll see Global settings and Program settings tabs. Select the Global Settings
tab, then in the drop down list called Global presets, select the Base profile option.

If you scroll down the settings list, you'll find the Stereo - Enable option. Set this to On.

You'll also have to set the Stereo - Display mode option to match how your running your active stereo.

For example, if you're using shutter glasses with an IR transmitter that's plugged into the 3pin DIN connector on the video card, that's the option you'd select.

HMDs that take frame sequential active stereo typically sync to the frame changes and you don't have to worry about the settings.

Hope this helps.
