Post Body

so i got mine today. and turns out my brand new razer blade 15 has no displayport or mini ... iā€™ll put a link to the exact laptop. but anyway after that i was kinda tripping but figured after a brief google that i needed a adapter or so i thought. went to best buy and bought some 90$ usb type c port-hub that had one mini display port. then i came back ran the oculus setup program and viola not detecting my f****n DP cable. well more precise itā€™ll read for about five secs but before i can get to the next part of the setup where it does the sensor test itā€™ll say ā€œno DP cord try again or skip setupā€. iā€™m just soooo mad if thereā€™s nothing to do in this is it really if my pc doesnā€™t have the port basically means try and sell the headset orrrr ? thereā€™s nothing to be done? am i dumb and missing a driver or whatever. anyway sorry for the essay but i got a brand new car headset (be i have never even seen besides in youtube vids) and now iā€™m on my own and just saved up for it after buying the laptop. all me. and itā€™s sitting here useless FROM A PORT itā€™s killing me. really appreciate anyone who took the time and if you even have a guess it would be much appreciated.

as i said thereā€™s the exact laptop that iā€™m using. if it could help someone point me in the general direction of what to even TRY to do. i really shouldnā€™t have just gotten all giddy once i had a laptop that could run VR stuff and immediately buy a rift just assuming that id just be able to plug it in. šŸ˜“šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

UPDATE!! i have gotten it to work with this adapter > StarTech.com Thunderbolt 3 to... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072JK37LV?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

and this one! > tomtoc USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZT12Q41?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

(although i havenā€™t used it for more than a few mins)

thanks to everyone who was trying to help out you guys are the reason i didnā€™t have to buy a vive ā™„ļøšŸ¤£
