MSI GT83VR 7RF Titan SLI doesn't work with my Oculus HMD

Hi my laptop has a GeForce GTX 1080 SLI x 2 card and when I install the Oculus software I get a black screen / no screen in the HMD. When I use a SUB-C2HDMI4K adapter I get red and blue vertical stripes through the HMD screen, and than the HMD turn to black. When I use a Thunderbolt2HDMI4K adapter the laptop screen is powering off and on continously. I have tryed to get it work with SLI off, same thing. I have updated the firmware and software. The HMD work's on another PC with a GeForce GTX 1070. My HTC vive works fine on the MSI laptop.

 please help!

I have the same laptop slightly older with 1070's.
This is what made the HMD wok for me.
