These are especially common on Nvidia Quadro cards because very few people use those cards so the drivers seem worse than for consumer cards. You would only use such a card to support stereoscopic rendering with LCD shutter glasses, as you mention.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">At any rate, the only thing likely to fix these crashes is to install either a newer or older graphics driver that does not hit the bugs.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If you use Chimera menu entry Help / Report a Bug… you can send us a report that includes your graphics driver version.
