You need a 3D Monitor.

Check to see if your monitor's box says 3D ready/capable or something OR if it says 120Hz

BUT you can watch non stereoscopic 3D or at least that's what I think it's called. The red-blue/cyan glasses thing.

Two types of 3D:

Active
Passive

Active Requirements: You need a monitor with 120+Hz of frequency (can use lesser frequencys, but you loose fluidity) (check the brand's specs), and Active glasses(>100$). Wht this 3D does is, flash two different images consecutevely, and when the left picture is shown, the left shade is darkened, and vice-versa, confusing your brain into overlapping the pictures, generating 3D.
Pros: no light or color loss. Almost all new Monitors are ready
Cons: High Cost glasses, energy usage

Passive Requirements
Two essential types:
Circular polarization: Two different images are generated at the same time, but are displayed by two different displays (could be in the same monitor, or two different projectors), and the image is separated for each eye by the light polarization filter lens, different for each eye.
Pros: Cheap Glasses
Cons: light loss, costier monitors or double projector + light filters and stuff

Color polarization:
The red/cyan/green one. The images are filtered, each of the eye maintaining one given color channel. The glasses then filter by color these images,
generating 3D.

Pros:Cheap technology, available for any colored screen
Con: Color loss mainly, but huge

Oh, well if it's a laptop then it has to be from at least 2011 (maybe 2010) on for it to be 3D capable

And you need the glasses

Forgot to add something to the active technology. PC wise, you need a good graphics card to be able to do it. Not talking about GT680 range, but a dedicated GPU from nVidia or Radeon should be enough. Not so sure about the Intel HD series though.

Your laptop is most likley not 3d compatabe.You need a 3d monitor if you want to watch 3d stuff from your laptop or just buy a new laptop that supports 3d.

You can if you have nVidia 3d vision. I personally have it installed on my laptop and I can play all games in 3'd and all DVD movies in 3'd without them being 3d :D weird shit
