so i got mine today. and turns out my brand new razer blade 15 has no displayport or mini ... iāll 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 itāll read for about five secs but before i can get to the next part of the setup where it does the sensor test itāll say āno DP cord try again or skip setupā. iām just soooo mad if thereās nothing to do in this is it really if my pc doesnāt have the port basically means try and sell the headset orrrr ? thereās 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 iām on my own and just saved up for it after buying the laptop. all me. and itās sitting here useless FROM A PORT itās killing me. really appreciate anyone who took the time and if you even have a guess it would be much appreciated.
