Hello there ppl,
Yesterday I updated windows and nvidia drivers, started playing some beatsaber and for the first time since the Rift-S launch I experienced my pc shutting down while I was in VR with no blue screens, just like what would happen if I took the plug out of the wall.
At first I thought it were a PSU problem, but after running gpu and cpu stress tests for half an hour I became suspicious of the RiftS and got into VR to see what would happen, in 10 sec had a shut down.
Well I spent the whole day troubleshooting and now instead of shutting down once every 20 min it lasts less than a minute.
Things that I tried: Went back to old windows version, used DDU to downgrade nvidia drivers, removed the OC I had on GPU, reinstalled oculus, changed USB power settings on windows and BIOS and reinstalled a fresh windows 10.
Unfortunately nothing seems to work 😞
My guess atm it's that for some reason the USB 3.0 Ports I use to plug in the rift-s are drawing too much power and makes the pc abruptly restart. The fresh Windows 10 install really makes me think its a hardware thing but idk my rift its just a fancy paperweight now
