About twice this week my Rift reported no hdmi connection in the Oculus Home app.

Uninstalling and reinstalling the GPU drivers usually fixes the issue.

I'm running win10 with the Inatek USB card (using MS drivers). The rift is on a USB2 port, the sensor is on the USB3.

I have a HDMI monitor and a DP monitor running alongside the rift on a 1070.

All drivers are up to date.... The HDMI cable is fine when it works so I don't think it's a cable fault.

Any ideas ?

Used to have a Logitech stick, but that just used the ms drivers. I'll look into it. Thanks.

In the meantime I've sent the logs of too oculus, we'll see what they say.

Is anyone here using the inatek USB card? What drivers are you using? Btw this would be for win 10 64 but.
 
The main reason for USB3 is for the sensor to report back the position with low enough latency.

My understanding is that USB2 is fine for the headset.

At the moment I've got everything plugged into USB3 and just started to use a DP -> HDMI adaptor for the rift video signal as I heard that some NVidia drivers are happier like this.

Oh I've also turned off power saving on all the usb hubs in device manager.

Will report back on how it goes.

One disconnect in 2 hours elite after about 20 minutes. I moved the headset USB to a USB on board and it was good as gold for the next 1h40m.

It does seem to be the USB port that is the issue not the HDMI port although the audio keeps working.

So too soon to say it's resolved but....

Can't believe this is an issue :-/ USB should be a mature tech with no issues.
