Microsoft Flight Simulator with WIn11 fails to work.

Hi all,
This issue has been posted on the msfs2002 (FS), and Oculus forums recently.


When in VR mode the display (inside the O2), becomes glitchy, broken and the mouse (inside the O2), becomes unresponsive and sometimes msfs2020 locks up.

Seems to be a Win11 issue. When the O software is open – choose Desktop – then open FS, it all goes ok, but as the gas gauge loading bar gets to about halfway, the visuals outside FS, get glitchy and then the mouse goes jittery. Then once at the main FS screen – if you can, co-ordinate the mouse to the VR option, it's all a mess.

EDIT: This is using Air Link. Everything else – HalfLife Alyex, etc, all work fine. Just not FS.

So: 32GB Ram, WIN11 (all updates), i9 10850K @ 3.6Ghz, 3070 with the latest (as this post 1659), and the O2 updated.

Initial complaints are that O – aka, Meta are advising clients to go back to Win10!! Which is pretty bad...

At first I thought it was my res setting in FS – I am fortunate to have one of those Samsung 49" ultra wide screens and I was thinking that the res I had (can't recall now), was not compatible with the O2.

So a following up question. Does the O2 care what the Res setting is in FS – or does it just default to its own internal LCD resolutions?
I was thinking that the high res was 'confusing' the O2. I went through many restarts and Res changes, but alas, to no avail.

At first I fiddled with all the YT options on O2 glitching on my own, then I decided to check out the O2 and FS forums and when i saw others complaining, I went "ah ah, so it's not just me...!"

It seems that there's no solution 'yet'. This is pretty bad as lots of people have paid good money to have FS in VR...
