taffy001 Posted Monday at 07:27 AM Posted Monday at 07:27 AM Hi All, looks like my HP G2 V2 headset cable is playing up... I am getting black screens and intermitant drop out in the headset whilst using DCS/MSF2020 and iRacing. Still shows up on the monitors though. Played around with various windows power settings etc and no use. Also tried the old V1 cable which worked without drop outs and blackscreens So looks like I need a new cable (I know - get a newer VR headset you say - probably next year though) So can anyone advise where I can get replacent cable in August 2025. I am in Australia but happy to purchase wherever I can get quality cable (not the Temu version) Note tried to contact HP Australia (I know they no longer support but maybe a cable or somewhere to go for one). Most useless support website have seen - can't actually talk to anyone and any online support needs a serial number which when entered rejects as not known - absolutely hopeless Thanks in advance Taffy

Maddaawg Posted Tuesday at 03:49 AM Posted Tuesday at 03:49 AM (edited) I saw one on eBay yesterday when I was price checking the G2. I think it was $75 USD. Most of the used G2's were $150. Shipping to Australia though might be a problem to as shipping costs are high. Maybe look on the used market in Australia. I think I have V2 R2, or something like that. I don't recall exactly. Found it, ships to Aus too https://ebay.us/m/WZwY8m Edited Tuesday at 03:57 AM by Maddaawg Meta Quest 3, AMD 9800x3D, EVGA 3080Ti FTW3, Corsair 2x32GB DDR5 6000, ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming, Samsung 990 Pro 2TB M2 NVME Windows 11 Drive, Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB M2 NVME Game Drive
Rainer_B. Posted Tuesday at 09:08 AM Posted Tuesday at 09:08 AM Feel you. After my short Trial with the Pimax Crystal LIght (not okay for me) it's back to the G2 and the saying of never change a running System is right. My Cable is also on the Edge after the new install. Picture is okay for now but no Passthrough. Luckely i have a new Cable at Home. Bought it from Amazon Germany in December. Now it's not available anymore.
AngleOff66 Posted Tuesday at 08:08 PM Posted Tuesday at 08:08 PM Bit of a risk but would any of these from Aliexpress work? https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-hp-reverb-g2-power-cable.html
