Can't Get Demos to work!

Using Windows,

I have the hardware connected properly, since both Stereoscopic Player and the Half-Life Beta work fine on the Rift, but all the other Demos I've tried so far seem to have the same startup Interface (which I assume is Unity), but none of them work.

I assumed everything required for them to work would be in the demo download, but this seems not to be the case, so what do I need to install seperately?

SDK 1.0 (which seems to be UDK)?
SDK for Windows 2.0?
Unity 4 Pro Integration? (Does't have anything to actually instaqll unless you have the full Unity package)
MS Net 2.0/4.0 (but I don't see it mentioned anywhere as a requirement)

or was I right in the first place, and they should they be working anyway without any of these extra installations?

    When you say "none of them work", can you describe what's happening? Immediately crash with error? If so, what's the error? Blank screen? What color is the screen? Can you hear stuff but not see anything? Is the problem that you're not getting any headtracking?

    Generally, you don't need anything extra to run a Unity app, but I could be wrong. But, I find that most of them run better in fullscreen, at a resolution from 1280x800 to 1920x1080 or 1920x1200.

    I was getting the resolution selection screen, and then pressing play gave me a black screen, sound was working.

    Reboot made no difference. I then redownloaded the Tuscany Demo and it worked (as it had done before). Then I tried the other demos again, and they worked fine. Very weird.... They mostly crash whwn closing, but that's not a problem for me.

    All seem to be working now except the OR player, which seems to crash no matter what video file is used.
