Hi, kickstarter backer from Norway here! Got my CV1 and loving it so far! Running pretty good on my slightly underpowered build with a Nvidia GTX 780. However, I also have a asus g751jy laptop. i7 and 980m. In theory, about as powerful as my other setup. And would love to run my rift on that as well. And I have seen some people reporting success with DK2 and this laptop:https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/3zwwlg/rift_compatible_gaming_laptop_list/
And I have gotten pretty far in the Oculus setup, it detects the headset and sensor. However when I get to the point where I am to "continue inside" I only see a black screen. I do get audio, but no image. The little yellow light also lights up. And when it detect is has be put on, my screen seems to dim a little. I had some issues while running the setup, my PC asked me to restart after some driver installs. But clicking restart did nothing. Not sure if that was related. In addition I don't seem to be able to go through the process again. Even after reinstalling the Oculus runtime found at oculus.com/setup. After reinstalling I always end up at the same point in the process. Does anyone know how to totally redo this?
But, I am aware that the errors in the install process might not be the issue. As Oculus does not promise any support for laptops. Could it be because my HDMI output simply cannot output 90 hz or something? Could it be because it is running through the motherboard instead of directly to graphics card? As far as I know, this specific laptop is NOT running Optimus (said to be responsible for most issues with laptops).
So, is there any hope for me to be running this on my laptop? 🙂
