Hello everyone, got a weird problem with my Vive and you're my last resort at the moment.
A couple months ago, had to disconnect my Vive to temporarily move my PC, and since then I had no picture in my headset. I've been experimenting with troubleshooting solutions for months and contacted my local HTC vendor, who replaced my 3-in-1 cable and Linkbox, with no improvement whatsoever.
Here's the details: Ordinarily, there's simply no picture in the headset, with the display remaining dark. The status light is green and SteamVR shows everything working normally. Headset mirror shows a picture with no tracking problems. If I try deleting USB drivers and disconnect and reconnect the Linkbox and headset, SteamVR returns a 208 error (no display found) and the status light goes red, until I reboot my PC, after which the previous state resumes (no errors, but no display). Interestingly enough, the headset works fine and displays an image if I bypass the Linkbox and connect HDMI and USB directly to PC, with either sets of cables. So far, thinking this is a driver/Windows issue.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions or ideas. I'm thinking my last resort is to reinstall Windows, but I'd really like to try everything else possible before that.
