Error Code: 10938 - GPU Output Reaches Maximum Capacity (Bandwidth Limitations)

Troubleshooting Step (a): Multiple Monitors Used
Solution:
  • Retain only one monitor: Keep only one monitor and remove the others.

  • Integrated Graphics Solution: If the PC has integrated graphics, connect one of the screens to the integrated graphics.

  • Multiple Graphics Cards Solution: If you have more than one graphics card, connect the screen and Crystal to different graphics cards.

  • Screen Switching Solution: If it's acceptable to close one screen while using Crystal, we have also verified a solution using a DP (DisplayPort) switch. You need to purchase a DP switch that takes one input and switches the DP output between the screen and the monitor.


Troubleshooting Step (b): High-Resolution, High-Refresh-Rate Monitors Used, Causing Insufficient Graphics Card Output for HMD Support
Solution:
  • Integrated Graphics Solution: If the PC has integrated graphics, connect the screen to the integrated graphics.

  • Multiple Graphics Cards Solution: If you have more than one graphics card, connect the screen and Crystal to different graphics cards.


Troubleshooting Step (c): Check Graphics Card Settings
Solution: 
Graphics Card Overclocking: Check if the graphics card is overclocked. Overclocking might cause issues with the VR headset; please cancel overclocking if applied.


Check Graphics Card Version(d)
