How do I fix HDMI connection and "Oculus has encountered an error"?

Every time I open my Oculus application, there is a red bar on top that says "Oculus has encountered an error. Please restart your computer or contact Oculus Support." I think this is causing my computer to be unable to pair the Oculus Rift with my HDMI port. The setup software continues to wait for me to plug in my HDMI cable into the port even when I have done so. I've tried restarting my computer, reinstalling the software, and replugging the cord that extends into the headset. Has anyone experienced a similar problem or have a solution to this?

Me too. It seems that the product is not prime time. I have already told to 3 friends that were eager to buy one to do not.
