Did the windows update fix it for anyone else?

So it's a windows compatibility issue and not the S causing this problem???
A PC with lots of gadgets inside and a thing to see in 3D that you put on your head.

Not for me.

I believe so. 

Worked great on my 980, post upgrade to 2070 crashes almost immediately

For what it's worth, I'm having the same issue. Together with a myriad of other issues I've had to wade through. Which I'm not fully confident are fully fixed. But I also have an RTX 2070. Also, my computer screen often flashes to black while running the Oculus app.

Let's hope the fixers are reading these posts to join up the dots and find a fix...

I am working through the same problem.  WIll work for a few seconds, then black screen.  Unplugging the mini-displayport adapter and then plugging it back in gets it working for a few more seconds.  I will try updating windows and see if that happens.  Running a gtx 1070.

I have the same issue. Setup works fine until the continue in VR part. I have audio but no video. White LED in the headset and blue in the front. Seems like this is an issue for many users now,
