My buddy tried it, so far it won't even go into set up. it isn't verifying the connection of USB or DP. Just circles around on that set up screen forever.

Hey! Oculus Beta-update to version 1.38 worked for me!!

First I tried 3 different pcs (with gtx 1060 and gtx 1070) and version 1.37, but on all three pcs the oculus rift s remained black. I did the Windows 10 update to 1903 and it didn't work, and switching to another display port also didn't work. I did not try downgrading the geforce driver.

I just got my rift s today, can't get the display to work. Updated windows, downgraded clean install of Nvidia drivers, beta update in Oculus, repaired Oculus install, still no joy. Tried on my PC with a rtx 2080, and in my 2019 blade advanced with rtx 2060. Oculus app always says display port not connected.

and by the way: at some games i don't get any sound from the oculus rift s, like the oculus introduction game or dirt rallye. at other games the sound was there, like space pirates trainer, or the default oculus home screen. tried to change some settings, but nothing worked.

update: job simulator and angry birds vr don't work. angry birds says "vr device not found" and job simulator stays black, says nothing. will try some more vr games later and give you an update.
