Question

Oculus Quest Link gives a black screen when I open my Desktop

I have a MSI 12th Gen Intel(R)Core(TM)i5-12450H gaming laptop, my quest works fine with link cable conected to the meta app but when I try to use my desktop on it, the screen is black & I can only see my mouse. 
I’ve tried the method where I put the oculus setup for power saving and restarting both devices but it’s doesn’t work.

    The black screen with only the mouse visible could be due to GPU or display issues. Try these steps:

    1. Update GPU drivers and Meta Quest software.
    2. Set Oculus to use the high-performance GPU in NVIDIA Control Panel.
    3. Ensure display scaling is at 100%.
    4. Check if your laptop's GPU is the default for VR.
    5. Reinstall the Oculus app if needed.

    If it persists, test with Air Link or contact Meta support.
