Ok I finally got the Vive to work on my main PC. I think the problem was the index usb was still plugged into the pc and for some reason that was causing a conflict??? It was also plugged in when I set up the G2 and that worked fine. I checked out the Half Life Alex room again and it looked a lot better with the higher CPU/GPU

 Is your headset functioning at half-resolution by any chance? What are your specs??

Hmmm...  Maybe some of the same circuitry is shared between the Vive and the Index.  Could be confusing the system.  They did both come from Valve.

If you want to get the Index controllers working, you would need to pair them with the Vive headset (assuming that you want to use it as the receiver) and have only the USB and power connected.  The HDMI must be unconnected.  When you power them on, you should see them in SteamVR, but they probably will be a good distance away from your position.  Download and install the Space Calibrator software and run the calibration (follow the instructions on the download site).  When calibrating to your space, you will need the G2 controller.  Make certain that it's working well in your environment, and when calibrating, be sure you are wearing the G2 and that you always keep the controllers in your view.   Don't stand in one spot, rather move about your play space while moving the controllers around.  Once it works the way you want, you can have it boot automatically.  IIRC, I was able to just turn on the controllers, and everything would start up, dropping me right into SteamVR.

I’m still upset this never came out.

Yep I just got it to work:) are you doing that right now with the vive controllers? Feels good, index controllers so much better. The thought of having to play with the WMR controllers was equivalent to someone handing you a gamepad and the B button was sticky and the down right on the thumbstick only worked about  75% of the time.
