newbi Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I have included a screen shot of my system specs. I have just received and set up the Vive Wireless Adapter. I am able to play games (OrbusVR) for between 1-10 minutes before my computer freezes and crashes giving me the DCP Watchdog Violation error. Looking online I have tried several possible fixes all have failed. 1) run chkdsk /f/r from cmd prompt and restart. 2) Uninstall and reinstall all USB drivers (after making a recovery point) 3) Roll back my Nvidia Driver 4) Reinstalled Lastest Nvidia Driver directly from website 5) Run clean disk and defragment 6) Reset PC and reinstall all files 7) Turn on each piece of Vive gear one at a time slowly. When it is working, prior to crashing, I have full signal, no lag, no issues. The moment before crashing, there is no issues, one second I am performing an action in the game, and next second, I see blue in my headset, computer frozen, few more seconds, computer restarts to blue screen and DCP WatchDog Violation. I have re-hooked up the wired connection for now until I can resolve this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Hammer Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Everyone with a Ryzen is having this problem. Vive has yet to make an official statement on the subject and it's been about three weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitmanion Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I've been having same exact issue. I had to reformat/fresh install everything anyways that didn't do **bleep**. . I have a ryzen 7, so I'm thinking it's an issue with ryzen processor or maybe motherboard?. Seems to only run without issues hard wired, for now wireless adapter is useless.. If you figure out the issue please post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbi Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 They made an offical annoucement and said you can contact them, and return the item for a refund. They did not say they intend to fix the capatability issue at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HackPerception Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 , This is the statement is referring to: https://blog.vive.com/us/2018/11/16/update-vive-wireless-adapter-ryzen-chipsets/ In short, we're working with AMD and motherboard manufacturers on the issue but it's an issue deeply routed in the hardware layer and we'd recommend taking advantage of the exceptions return policy outlined in the blog if the adapter happens to be incompatible with your PC.
