SteamVR Fail - Error 422

[Nub5000]

The error message I get is "Oh no! SteamVR has encountered an unexpected problem." and get the option to restart SteamVR and the error code 422. Previously, I was able to run VR without any problems, but I did set my VR recently with a wireless setup. I have a Vive headset. The other day it seemed to be working perfectly but I haven't been able to solve this problem and can't seem to find anyone else with the same situation. I have tried verifying the integrity of tool files and everything is fine. Help is very appreciated.

Anybody know what 422 means? Is it a problem with the link box? I have a wireless adapter, and that works. Problem when I go back to wired for more intensive games that pixelate too much with the wireless adapter and my system. Was working fine until last SteamVR update.

Having the same error with Rx 480 Graphics, any solution/fix?

I have this now too. Vive has been working for years without issue. A week ago or so, everything was good. Shutdown after a session, came back yesterday and I have 422.

Tried all sorts of things. Removal of drivers, Steam VR, sleeping on it. Still getting issues today. This 422 seems like a strange, not very descriptive error.

Really struggling to find a solution to this one.

I had this issue on the current beta branch with a Vive Pro with wireless kit. There are other reports that the wireless kit is what it's having an issue with. Going back to the release branch fixed the problem for me. Hopefully they will have a patch for this soon on the beta branch.

Thank you for the reply. After a couple hours of experimenting, I too managed to narrow it down to a possible wireless device issue. I've literally booted up just now to grab a screenshot of the error code for HTC.

So, like you've done, I'll try going back to the release branch first and see how that goes.

Well waddya know! That's done it. Never had an issue with the Beta branch before now, they're usually pretty close to the release.

Thank you again for your input. You've saved me the head ache of sending a perfectly fine wireless adapter back to HTC.

It fixed itself?

The switch to the non-beta of Steam VR fixed it.

I had this same error, it was caused by plugging my screen and VR set into the motherboard in stead of the GPU. Hope that helps someone, this problem was driving me crazy

So i still have problems with error 422 sometimes ... problem with display doesn't want to turn on and so on.. i changed all cables to be sure its not cables and still had problems...

now I'm sure that I have solution for my problem...
if I reinstall graphic drivers with clean install (removing old) then VR will work... I still need to turn off and on power to the VR headset (by unplugging power cable) to make display turn on don't know why .. but it works like a charm every time..

and it holds like a week then I have to reinstall drivers again ...

So last month I got to the point when even reinstalling clean drivers did not work. After many tries I reinstalled windows and that solved the problem but just for a while ..
Right now I had another weekend when VR said "nope" 422 and I could not get it work again and I did not want to reinstall windows again..
then I remembered words of my friend that told me to reinstall clean drivers because he has similar problem with his graphic tablet as third display..
so out of pure helplessness I unplugged my second monitor restarted VR and Voila! headset has lit up.. weird.. I plugged back second monitor and it does not have signal ?? weirder!! ... so is it the drivers ? or my GPU sometimes failing ? I cant say but maybe someone else will figure this out..
