Rasha Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 I have, so far, come across this with two different games (Trials on Tattoonie and SuperhotVR) In both cases, the game will show up on my monitor, but not on the headset. In the specific, and current, case of Superhot, I do get an error message on my monitor that "Headset plugged into wrong video card." I am using the wireless adapter for the Vive Pro. The game was purchased through Steam and I am launching the VR version Any help I could get with this would be greatly apprecieated. Update: I have found a third game that does the same thing as SuperhotVR. It shows up fine on my monitor, but only gives me the white dome on the headset SteamVR also gives me the error that headset and monitor must be plugged in to the same card...which I don't see how that's possible when I'm using the wireless adapter >_> Update #2: I have now found a FOURTH game with this exact issue: Scanner Sombre VR. It shows up on my monitor, but not on the headset. Just like the other games, I CAN hear the audio and FX sounds, but I have the same error as with the other three games. Help would be greatly apprecieated :)
Synthesis Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 What graphics cards do you have on your PC? It's possible there's an onboard iGPU that it's trying to use. If that's the case, you'll need to go into your BIOS settings and disable it.Thank you, -John C

Rasha Posted February 28, 2019 Author Posted February 28, 2019 Would have replied sooner, but I was in the middle of my daily VR workout when you replied haha
Synthesis Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Ah, so you've got two GPUs.Have you tried swapping the monitors to the other GPU?Thank you, -John C
Rasha Posted February 28, 2019 Author Posted February 28, 2019 Well, I'm using the same card slot as I use when I'm using VR. However, since I'm using the wireless adapter for the headset, is switching my desktop monitor to my other card even a viable option?
Synthesis Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 The reason I suggest it is because it sounds like the wireless adapter is picking up the other card to use instead, thus causing the "use same GPU as monitor" error.Thanks, -John C
Rasha Posted February 28, 2019 Author Posted February 28, 2019 This did not fix the issue. I switched the desktop monitor's HDMI cable to the second card and relaunched steamVR. I tried launching Super Hot from both the desktop launcher, Steam launcher and from within SteaVR. All gave the same problem.
Rasha Posted February 28, 2019 Author Posted February 28, 2019 Also, I feel I need to point out that this does NOT affect other games. I can play Beat Saber, Gorn and Brewmaster Dungeon with no issues.
Synthesis Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 That does make a difference and that is a very unusual issue. Could you create a SteamVR report and PM it to me?Thank you, -John C
