Hi,
  I'm not sure if the Quadro NVS series can do quad buffered stereo,
but I suspect not since these cards don't have a VESA stereo connector
on them. That said, if you're willing to wait a bit longer I should be
able to provide a test version of VMD 1.8.8 that includes a
non-quad-buffered implementation of anaglyph.

Cheers,
  John Stone
