So i got the headset from my dad and well at first everything was going right but then a few weeks later it randomly stoped working after turning it on no Picture only Black but Oculus home sound and the tracking works (ran a few games and looked at the monitor and everything worked there). I will try to set the resolution off my monitor lower and disable playmode in windows because i heard that would do something an can possibly work but i hope that if that doesnt work you in here can help me.
Hi there, @Jussidev213, thanks for sharing this here.
It seems like you're having an issue with a black screen on your Oculus Rift - this definitely isn't ideal. Let's see what we can do!
Usually, to fix this issue, we have to ensure Oculus\Support\oculus-runtime\OVRServer_x64.exe is using the same graphics device as their 2D Desktop. To fix this, follow these steps:
Go to Windows Settings > System > Display > Graphics Settings
Click Graphics performance preference
Click Choose an app to set preference > Desktop app
Locate your OVRServer_x64.exe. By default, this will be located as follows: C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-runtime\OVRServer_x64.exe
Click Add
Set this to Power Saving then close the settings menu and click Save. (If this doesn't work or is already the setting selected, Performance Mode can be tried instead).
Restart the computer and test VR Desktop
