    Just a quick question regarding the 270.61 NV driver, is it a requirement for the system to run stable to install 3D Vision and NVIDIA-update? Can I just uncheck the boxes and only install the graphics driver and PhysX?

    Thanks

    You do not need the 3D vision. I uncheck anything related to it. The rest is usually needed.

    The 3D vision is unneeded. Because the M11X screen is not 3D and the M11X would be running at 3FPS on every 3D game. Problem one can be solved by using a 3D monitor. So uncheck it.
