Hi @meganstinks! Thank you for reaching out and making us aware of this. Let's go through some checks together to see how we can get you back online and gaming!

 

Please can you confirm which headset model you have? This will allow us to provide more accurate troubleshooting checks!

 

It sounds like the controller tracking issues are causing the grey screen. Here are some troubleshooting checks you can go through for the controllers:
 

  • Ensure your area is well lit, with enough light to see clearly, but no direct sunlight
  • Ensure your area is free of small lights such as Christmas lights, or LED strips
  • Ensure your area is free of reflective surfaces such as mirrors, glass, or polished marble
  • Ensure the tracking cameras are clean
  • Ensure your environment is free of any obstructions between the tracking cameras and the controllers
  • Remove unsupported third-party accessories that may affect tracking or controller detection. For example, controller and headset covers, controller attachments, etc.
  • Remove the battery from the controller for 30 seconds
  • Try replacing the battery with a new one
  • Unpair and pair the controller to the headset
  • As a last resort, factory reset the device, if applicable

We hope this helps. Please reach out if you need assistance with any of your steps or this if this doesn't resolve your issue.
