Quick question

Hi cmdr's before I go out a by new leads I thought I would check in here to see if need to or there is another problem

Here goes I'm in the middle of ed can happen anytime any place, all of a sudden the headset goes black and it switches to my monitor. There is no power to hmd wont switch on at all. I have to unplug the cables out of hmd and reconnect them and all is fine again

turn the game off and back on works a treat but it's happened 5 times tonight twice going through the slot so not good timing at all

Tomorrow I plan on getting both leads replaced or has someone got any other ideas. Many thanks in advance

What version RT are you running? if you are still on 0.5, try 0.6.0.0 and see if that helps. I'm using rt 0.6 with no problems.

Could your rt turn the power to hmd it goes dead as a dodo no orange light or blue nothing I'm on 0.6.0.1 or something like that
 
It could be hardware or software related..I'm running the same Rt that you are without problems but that doesnt mean anything. check your USB root settings for power management.. It can decide to turn off power to a device that it thinks is not in use. it's in device manager all the way at the bottom. right click on every one of them and select properties-power management and uncheck them. it's a long shot but worth a try.
 
Many thanks CMDR will check that tomorrow but more than likely I've damaged the power cable somewhere along the line and when I move my head it breaks connection and looses power but will check your idea before I splash cash on new cables thanks again

my cable went bad on me a while back.. I contacted Oculus and they sent me a new set free. my remote wire to the camera broke inside the headset cable.
 
Well I'm not even sure I can change the leads as they go to a box that the camera connects to So not direct to pc not sure if there is a way around it will have to do more research gutted
