Got my Oculus! but it doesn't work at all..

Got my oculus CV1 sooner than I thought, but I spent all night and some more trying to get them working with no luck at all, I'm afraid they came broken
I came to the last two steps of the setup, where it is telling to put and continue in the headset, the light is white but no light on screen at all, it is connected to hdmi, and all usb3.
Any help will be appreciated.

Sorry, no help here, but that's a real bummer!

Look for these forums and this manual to see if they can help you in something.

Good luck!
Suerte!

Gracias @merchan-e !
I was reading real o virtual, will try again. Also reading in oculus forum, lots of people with similar problems.

Z68 motherboard with usb 2 and 3.o and Gigabyte gtx1060 card
Tried usb2 and 3.0, it recognise both ok, same with the hdmi.
I have tried multiple combinations with no luck, until I tried to connect all in the motherboard video plugs, then I got image in the rift as it was detected as a monitor, but failed in the oculus setup, at least I know the hdmi cable and screens in the rift works fine.
Also, I tried steamvr, and it detects the camera and the rift fine, even if the screen keeps in black, but I moved the rift and traked perfectly, so all looks to work fine, just with the screens turn off all the time.

Seems to be dependent on the motherboard and what cards you have installed, on my sons computer the CV1 just plugged in and worked out of the box - on mine it took days of mucking about to get it to work - in the end I found that a PCI WIFI card was somehow messing with it - removed that and it connect OK, but still was fussy with which ports it liked . Its a real lottery.

Yes I saw it , tried a lot of combinations and still nothing.
The rift is plugged directly to the hdmi port, as it is the best way to get it running or at least what people used most.
I'm using a projector connected via dvi hdmi adapter because I'd read that I need to have the monitor/pj connected to the same card in order to get it working, and my monitor is vga and I only have a hdmi to vga adapter and would block my only hdmi plugg.
Also tried all of my usb 2 and 3 pluggs without any luck, but the oculus setup says all of them are ok.
I will refine the search to people with the same motherboard (gigabyte z87n Wifi).

It is incredible, with the dk2 was almost plug and play, and now it is a caos...
This mother is itx so only one pci slot, no other cards installed, super simple setup.
I'm using win 8.1 I will try as a last resort to change to win10, I really don't know what else to do.

I've seen this people report this problem as the usb drivers. Can you launch Oculus home and go into the settings? It'll tell you if there is a usb problem.

Edit: Someone else suggested the same, should have read the whole thread, my mistake.

I still think it's worth updating usb drivers if you can though. Sounds like your rift isn't getting enough power to the hmd.

I agree, but there is no usb update for my motherbopard in gigabyte web, also it doesn't have any extra pcie to plug a standalone usb 3.0 compatible card... so, time to get a new motherboard... I will keep reading...

Probably a silly question... have you tried to update them via device manager in windows? If you have, you could try uninstalling them and reinstalling. After that, I'm out of ideas. Hope you manage to fix it

Thanks anyway Sarge, already done that.

Tell me please, does your hmd led light orange or white upon connecting and launching oculus home?
If you wear your hmd or touch a proximity sensor in it do you hear any sounds via headphones/speakers?
Did you consider buying pci usb 3.0 card, as oculus forum suggests?
Do you have a chance to test it on another pc to sort out what is actually an issue (seems usb 3.0 but could be a faulty hdmi though)?

Well, after 35 hours I got it working!...as easy as uninstall win 8.1 and install windows 10! biggest WTF, anyway, just installed win10, installed oculus soft, and got it running in the first try.
Thanks guys for the support!
Now it is time to try some games! How do you run assetto or project cars etc from outside Oculus home?

Congrats You can run either of those games with steam. When you launch the game, you should see an option to run it in vr mode.

it is nice you sorted it out. i'm running win 8.1 x64 pro with no issues, this is strange you got such struggle
anyway, for launch AC i use Virtual Desktop cause i have no LCD in front of me, i don't use steam VR because i want to use my desktop like always in fully proper manner

That's a relief @mariano68

Just Launch AC or pCars from Steam as Normal and you will get the option to Launch in Oculus mode.

(Oh and make sure you allow Third-Party apps to use the Oculus from the device settings. I can't recall the exact name, sorry, but it's pretty obvious)

Thanks @Archie! Got Project cars working, but not Assetto yet! but I know I will .
