VR not working (AMD 9070XT)

I also askes AMD about this issue:

On my GPU 9070XT i still have a VR issue. Tried everything with new and the latest 25.10.2 driver but no luck.

So i'm back on the AMD 25.4.1 release (amd-software-adrenalin-edition-25.4.1-win10-win11-apr22-rdna).

INGAME: Tried everything, but i still get a strange grey image in VR and only the HUD ingame is showing correctl(with F1 25).

I saw posts online with positive results. Is there anything you can do? Or do you have any tips/tricks?

Note: this only occurs in F1 25, all other games DO work

    Hey everyone, 

    Thanks for letting us know about that. I've passed the information on to the team!

    Try to go in your USERS/(USER ACCOUNT)/MY GAMES/F1 25/HARDWARESETTINGS AND DELETE THE XML FILES

    Hey Folifab​ , is the game running as expected in VR after you've deleted the hardware settings files?

    I don't know if it was casual or useful but it worked. But... as you attempt to modify any parameter in graphic settings or VR settings, it crashes and you must restart PC, delete those xml again and it is very frustrating!

    Folifab​ I can imagine how frustrating that must be, so thank you for taking the time to share what worked for you. These details are really helpful and should give the team a better picture of what’s causing the issue.

    Unfortunately, the issue has come back. This time is Javelin Anticheat the culprit! it crashes and I must restart PC. Neverending story!

    Mine are in "Users\[user account]\Documents\My Games\F1 25\hardwaresettings", but deleting the files does not make a difference. After I deleted the files I did not change any settings in-game and started a session straight away, but the screen stays black just as I reported earlier in this thread.

    Apart from that as an update on my AMD support ticket: AMD support points to a game specific issue, given the fact that (for the users that reported here) all other games work fine in VR. Hopefully the investigation will lead to a cause and fix soon, as this has been reported to be broken since August 2025... Thanks a lot for diving into it and keeping us posted EA_cuervo​ !

    Is there any other troubleshoot steps the team wants any of us to do to help with the issue? 

    Very motivated to get this fixed asap, and happy to help if needed with troubleshooting.
