Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes an area setting module, a display controller and a 3D function controller. The area setting module outputs a request for displaying a 3D image to a display device via a first interface in order to cause the display device to set a 3D area. The display controller outputs a video signal of the 3D image to the display device via a second interface in order to cause the display device to display the 3D image in the 3D area. The 3D function controller outputs, if abnormality occurs in operation of an OS executed on the electronic apparatus, a signal for disabling a 3D function to the display device via a third interface in order to set an entire screen of the display device to be a 2D area.
