Installation problems.

I'm sorry if this has been covered before but spending the best of 6 hours trying to install oculus and failing. Tried every suggestion on google I could find,  I've just about reached the end. 

It downloads fine but as soon as the installation starts it comes up with the reboot error. Basically it creates a cache folder in :c and an Oculus folder in programs but that's about it. I can't even check the install logs as there is nothing in app data. The frustrating thing is that most suggestions have elements of the program installed but there isn't even that, the rebel doesn't even have anything so I can try the permissions suggestion.

things I've tried.

Turning off Antivirus and admin install.
Downloaded with different browser.
Uninstalled 2015 C++

I've tried as much as I can so please help me if you can.

Thanks for the suggestion but it didn't help. Barring reformatting my computer for a fresh install, If I don't find a solution then I'm gonna have to send it back. So frustrating that I can't do anything with it.

it is about time you people at oculus pulled you finger out and sorted this firewall and antivirus problems out once and for all, not had the rift on for about a month and now nothing updates just tells me my anti virus is blocking installation, My anti virus is disabled my firewall is turned off  and it still won't update

I am fu*ing sick and tired of this bs. Having been running this piece of shit SW patch to repair this stupid developed ass software every time it gives me the No#1 award winning price of 2018 for the most retarded runtime error. Im bout to smash this RIFT to 1000 pieces and go buy me a Vive instead. This is the most retarded shit ive ever had trouble with on pc since windows 98.

Problem 1. Some how the display drivers wont load. Not even the ovr file or whatever. In addition, it requires to run this stupid ass patch that requires to restart the PC. 
Ive been doing that since, once a day (or every time i need to launch oculus home)

Problem 2. the fuckinstaller wont work any more. wasting my time DL 4.5 gigs of complete bullshit , at the end of every retarded restart it tells me to restart. I am so tired of this half ass overpriced piece of junk.

So gays and gals it seems lots of people have this problem lately, and Oculus support seems to ignore us. I'm speaking  according to multiple(maybe hundreds) of posts , pointing the issue.
None of the solutions, pointed in those worked for me and as shared for many others.
The problem seems  to be using a hardware that is not officially supported, but PROVEN to be working in the past versions of Oculus software. Currently it seems they directly ban accesses to the O-home starting window, if you are lucky to even finish the installation. 
Maybe if we flood the forum with similar treads , Support will show some mercy and patch it.
Else ....we have an expensive decoration!
