Display of mixed media headset doesn't work most of the time and stops after a few minutes

[josvp1]

Display of my VR1000 00nn mixed media headset doesn't work most of the time and if it does, it stops after a few minutes.

I updated the drvers for my NVIDIA geforce 1060 to the latest version, but that doesn't change anything.

I fear this might be a hardware problem, but I still hope there's a software solution for this problem.

Hey there! @josvp1, Thanks for stopping by the HP Support Forums!

I understand mixed reality headset doesn't work most of the time and stops after a few minutes.

Don't worry I'll try to help you out.

Did you make any software or hardware changes on your PC?

How is the VR connected to your PC?

As you mentioned mixed reality headset doesn't work most of the time and stops after a few minutes.

To ensure that the headset works properly, connect the headset directly to a USB or HDMI port on the computer, tablet, or other device being used.

I went back to the store today and got a new HMD. Plugged it in and it works like a charm, so there must have been a hardware problem in the first one. Played about with my new device for a few hours and was totally amazed. This is a fantastic device!
