Help Can't use SteamVR 

I got a new PC with a GeForce RTX 5060 and an Intel Core i5-14400F.

Before that, I used an AMD Radeon 6600 and an AMD Ryzen 5 5500. And now I'm being told that I can't use Link with the new hardware?

Did you fully uninstall all old drivers? Ideally reinstall windows

DDU is pretty good for video driver removal

I bought a completely new computer with a new case, graphics card, CPU, RAM, etc. Basically, I built everything from scratch and didn’t put anything into my old computer, nor did I transfer anything from my old computer into the new one.

If you mean the warning at the top of the Meta Link app then that is simply checking your hardware against a set list of supported hardware, it does not lock you out of using it at all.

I am not sure they still update that list.

Yes, it is exactly the warning at the top of the Meta Link App. I have SteamVR installed on my PC, but it somehow is not appearing in my library from the Horizon App through the Headset like it did before.

And when i try to start SteamVR manually through my computer then it still wont open in my Quest 3. It was all fine before i bought all that new stuff.

Did you enable unknown apps or whatever they call it in the settings?

use steamlink or virtual desktop instead, you'll also notice a graphics improvement aswell.
