Oculus crash PC when launch

Anonymous
Not applicable

In short, the problem is that after starting the Oculus app, my PC crashes, freezes, and sometimes blues the screen with the error clock_watchdog_timeout, no matter if I click on the thumbnail or activate the sensor in the headset. My guess is that it is faulty Oculus drivers, but the problem is that after rebooting the PC a couple of times, everything works properly. I have an Oculus Rift CV1 + Touch that I bought back in 2019 and stopped playing after 2 months. I had it stored in the closet in its original box, so it looks brand new. What is noteworthy is that this has never been a problem before. Back then, I had an 8700 + Z370-E STRIX.

 

PC:

BENQ 2411p & 2546k

Nevermind, the problem was in the undervolt. I had 1.290 on the vcore, so it was too low for the system, so it was crashing.

For people who have this problem, I solved it by enabeling the E-cores back.
