Yep, the sync cable is plugged in. I've tried multiple ports.
Edit: After restarting the oculus rift a few times, the blue light on the camera now comes on. The blue light on the oculus rift also comes on. It works on the desk demo. I took the mirror cap off of the camera (I hope it's supposed to be off)
However, the Tuscany demo still doesn't work for the tracking. (When I push spacebar, POS stays the same, never changes)
I think this has something to do with the Camera wanting to pulling too much power or the camera and the rift combined. I am thinking this could be resolved with a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA4UB1S47266 and a USB wall adapter.
