How do I get the images to begin displaying again, in a LENOVO EXPLORER mixed reality headet--when the game "stutters" and blanks out (temporarily), and stops displaying images in the headset?

After frequent bouts of image stuttering and/or blanking out--the images will finally stop being displayed in the headset, altogether.

I'm running an AMD FX 4350 4.2Ghz CPU; GTX 1070-ti 8GB graphics card, 32GB memory; Windows 10 64bit.

Hi Robert,

I am not with Laminar Research; just a flight simmer from downunder.  I am not into VR and at my age I won't be.

What I do know about VR is what I will provide to you.

Up until one of the most recent updates (not 11.30) you needed a plugin called Steam VR to enable the use of all headsets.  The update allowed some popular brands to remove the necessity for the plugin from X-Plane and they successfully operated.  My vague memory tells me the make you are using was not one of the specific brands that had the new benefit  So, I am of the opinion you need to have the plugin installed through X-Plane. 

I would also suggest you have a look at this site that can be found at  https://www.youtube.com/user/BambinoBlog/videos  which deals with issues associated with VR headsets.

Also I have seen in this forum where others providing an answer have suggested moving your question to the   X-Plane.org forum which is a dedicated site created by X-Plane users for X-Plane users   The site you are currently on is administered by X-Plane.com or also known as Laminar Research.  There is  no connection between either party.

For starters in trying to solve your problem have a look at this link found at https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/forum/380-vr-in-x-plane-11/  which currently has 40 pages of issues.  The downfall with this forum is that you have to make comments 3  or 4 times before you can ask an original question.

The following link may be of some use as well and found at https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/search/&q=vr%20headsets

Sorry I can't be more helpful.
