Xbox One to Windows 10 Streaming - Gray Screen

[GrayW0lf]

Hey all,

I just took a stab at streaming a couple of games from my Xbox One to my Windows 10 desktop PC. The Xbox app connects to my console just fine. The streaming tests show green checkmarks for all speeds, including "Very High" quality streaming. When I try to stream any game from the console, I see the blue "Connecting" screen.. then a gray/blank screen - no video. I can hear the audio from the game streaming to my PC, however.

I am running the RTM build of Windows 10 - 10240. I have an nVidia Geforce GTX 980 video card. I've tried driver versions 355.82 and 355.60. Both result in the same bad behavior. I am guessing that this is a video driver problem but wanted to post this to see if anyone else has had this problem and resolved it?

http://forums.windowscentral.com/xbox-console-gaming/361629-xbox-one-game-streaming-now-working.html has a comment that reads very similar to what I experienced (but I did not want to resurrect an old/unrelated post):

I threw a HDD in my tower and put windows 10 on it to try this out. There appears to be no drivers for my GTX570 and when i try to stream anything it says it's connected but i just get a grey box... I also am not able to use my second monitor. I'm assuming my video drivers are the issue. This better get fixed by the General Release of Windows 10...

I started the upgrade on my laptop which has a 680M on it. Nvidia has these drivers listed on the website, so hopefully it will work tonight after i get everything upgraded.

Thanks all!

Hey, I was able to resolve my issue by doing a hard reset on my xbox. Holding down the Power button for 10 seconds, or just simply unplugging the xbox should resolve the issue. Also, once Nvidia released the drivers for my card, i got my 2nd monitor working

Ugh. Well, I was able to get streaming to work with my ASUS Gaming laptop, but not with my desktop PC so far. So I don't think that resetting the Xbox will help much here. I did try upgrading/downgrading my video card drivers to no avail. The laptop is in the Insider program while my desktop has not been. That could be part of my problem.

I joined the Windows Insider program with the impacted PC. Doing this resolved the problem that I was experiencing with game streaming. (Currently running Windows 10 build 10532).
