    Apparently it means they found the monitor but can’t find a valid display mode with the GPU

    Dos your system meet proper specs? Is everything including your graphics driver updated?

    Hello Ilya Z, I am an independent advisor and I would be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

    I'm sorry you're experiencing issues with your Lenovo Explorer VR headset.

    Check your Internet connection: Make sure your PC is connected to the Internet and that your connection is stable

    Update your system: Go to Settings > Update & security. Check if there are any pending updates. Install it. If you don't see any pending updates, press the Check for updates button

    Restart your PC: If this problem persists, restart your PC

    Check your PC resources: Open the task manager and make sure you have at least 20% free CPU and 400 MB free memory. Check if any process has failed

    Uninstall and reinstall the headset drivers: Sometimes uninstalling and reinstalling the headset drivers can help resolve technical issues.

    Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.

    Mixed Reality Error

    Hi Tommy, I don't have a VR device, I don't understand why this has happened at all, I just cannot get the screen message to go off my screen and allow me open the msfs! I have asked on the msfs forum, with no real answer to the issue.I did try Ctrl+Tab but, does the programme need to be open,if so then I can't go any further than the image I have posted,

    regards,

    Mixed Reality Error

    Hello Alex.Wilson1.



    Welcome to Microsoft Community.



    Regarding to your information I assume that you have some problems when you play the MSFS.

    Did you use a VR device like Quest 2?

    If you don't have a VR device you can try to use the Ctrl+Tab shortcuts to switch the VR mode or Monitor mode.

    If you have a VR device you can try to delete all vr devices in the Device Manager and reconnect it to reset the setting of Mixed Reality.

    If these steps can't solve your problem may be the better way you get help about this game is the MSFS official forums which have

    a lot of professional players of this game.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums



    If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.



    Best Regards,
