Crashing, losing audio and sticking.

Hi,

I've had these issues since I got the Rift S and tried all the fixes I could find online to no avail, i.e. uninstall/reinstall all oculus software in safe mode, set USB power management options, removed fitting on the back of the rift s to make sure cables were in properly, etc. I have also enabled the public BETA testing, but the updates I received from there seemed to make things worse, so I reverted back. It just seems that all these problems are connected to the audio issues, as when it's about to crash I get a static sound, the audio then stops and then I get a black screen, whereby I then have to restart and set everything up again, it's a total pain in the ass!!!

I can use the rift when I use third party headphones, but it's annoying having to do this. However, even though I can use it for longer periods of time, I still get tearing and sticking happening quite often, i.e. when I turn my head it's as if the rift stops working for a second or two and it feels like it's stuck. I had a Rift with the external sensors previous to this and there were no issues whatsoever.

In addition, I also find it irritating that I can't play games from the Oculus store that I downloaded to my slave drive, which is much bigger than my 500gb SSD. There's an issue there where, when I try to install games I have downloaded to my slave drive, it tells me that my antivirus is blocking the installation, which is not true as I have turned everything off and tried this.

My system specs are;

Ryzen 2700x CPU.
GTX 1070 GPU.
16Gb 3000Mhz RAM.
500Gb SSD.
EVGA 850W PSU.

Just wondering if anyone knows of a fix for this that I might not have tried!

Thanks.
