Strobelight - LightBoost Utility for AMD/ATI and NVIDIA

[ryanmt]

Okay, I've completely run out of ideas on how to get this working. Every time I get the same error upon initializing, "No compatible displays found." Not once have I seen the Lightboost option available on the OSD (remains grayed out no matter what I do).

• Windows 7 x64
• GeForce 660 Ti (EVGA)
• Asus VG248QE
  

I have tried all of the following:

• GeForce Experience installed vs. uninstalled
• DVI-D vs. Displayport
• 3D Vision installed vs. uninstalled
• 334.89 driver vs. 327.23 driver vs. 335.23 driver
• Strobelight Beta 4 vs. Strobelight Beta 4 swapped vs. CRU method vs. EDID method
• NVIDIA Pixel Clock Patcher (grasping at straws here)
• DisplayFusion Pro enabled vs. disabled
• Have another person verify that I am installing this according to instructions
  

I have NOT tried but am considering the following, although I'd strongly prefer not to have to resort to this:

• Reinstalling Windows 7
• Installing Windows 8
  

Debug info is the same every time, save for the number of passes:

[2014-03-12 00:00:54.988] INIT: No compatible displays found.

Other notable issues:

• When the "strobed" refresh rate is enabled (despite strobelight failing to initialize) there are significant artifacts present, most notably on darker colors/blacks and along the edges of the screen (see images [1] [2])
• Normal function is restored by changing to a non-strobed Hz or by resetting the monitor in strobelight-setup.exe. However, unplugging and plugging back in has no apparent effect.
• This issue is also present after installing the override .inf file
  

Might this be a problem with the monitor itself? It seems unable to get any 3D signal. I'm at the end of my rope!! Any help would be immensely appreciated.
