I also wrote into other the forum. I bought oculus mainly for the work with Medium. But it just don´t work. I spent about 15 hours trying to get it work, but no chance. Other programs like Quill work without any problems. I found a lot of other people having the same issues, that Medium just doesn´t start. Here are some of the solutions I found in the Forums:
- Disable MSI Afterburner - Disable RivaTuner - disable GPU Overlay apps - get latest graphiccard driver - Disable SLI - reboot - problem with ntdll.dll on win10 pro - If you have AMD: get latest drivers - disable integrated graphics in BIOS - have at least one monitor attached - enable python executables (if you have blender) - install another system monitor - get rid of second graphiccard - No Cables Secondary Videocard - No cables Motherboard Videoport - don´t have "äöü" in your username - run oculus as admin - change oculus folder via registry - if you are on network folder add the \\ (2 backslashes) in registry - disable teamviewer - disable f.lux - disable splashtop - uninstall fruityloops - reinstall oculus - reinstall medium
For me nothing of that worked. And I tried even moren. Maybe it doesn´t work with a cintiq? Maybe it is 3Dsmax or Photoshop. This is realy frustrating. I was realy thrilled to work with Medium, but I also never found a program that is that hard to get to run. I thought about buying a new computer just for Medium. But there are so many people that can´t start Medium, so the risk is to high, that it won´t run on a new pc.
I will try a few other things today and propably give the oculus back to the store tomorrow, because it simply doesn´t work..
Do you have special characters in your windows user name? I have an "ö" and that messed up my Medium and also SteamVR. Created another user with different name and everything worked.
@LockingLilb No that also didn´t work.. I disabled every additional browser plugin, but same as before..
Sadly the Occulus Support also couldn´t help. The suggested to "setting your GPU power settings to 'performance'" .. I allready tried that before but forgot to mention in the list. For me that also didn´t work.
I now did it the "clean" way. Reinstalled Windows. Then it worked. Still don´t know, which other program made the crash.. If someone else also has the problem: I have installed: 3dsmax, vray, aftrereffects, reelsmart, frischluft, agisoft photoscan, xnview, firefox, up (3dprinter software)... Right now its bad that I have to restart to another windows to use Medium. But as I saw it the first test and it´s a realy great program. Hopefully someday it will work with my computer 🙂
Finaly found a solution for my case: Install Python (WinPython-64bit-3.4.4.1) Then install NUMPY (on the Python prompt type "pip install --upgrade --no deps https://github.com/numpy/numpy/master.zip" ) After that it worked for me
