Summary

Hello everyone.
Every time I launch unreal 5.5 i get gpu crashed or d3d device removed.
It has been an on off problem in unreal since August.
Now 5.5 isnt loading at all, I made this thread before and I was hoping to be able to start my project again when 5.5 came out.
Still have the problem.

Heres my old unanswered thread.

I am now 5 months behind with my project.
I have bought ALL new hardware for my PC to try and fix this.
I have reinstalled window 10+ times, replaced my ram to 64 gig FuryX, replaced my ssd to NVME fury 2tb, replaced my cpu to ryzen 9 5950x, replaced my PSU, replaced my motherboard, replaced my ssds, restarted my project 3 times and reinstalled/installed Unreal Engine and Epic Launcher 60+ times, replaced hdmi cable, done the tdr and delay stuff 30+ times.
I have changed drivers 50+ times and reinstalled windows (clean wipe) 10+ times.

If this carries on beyond another week I am going to have to change it all to unity and recreate my game (plus learn unity).
Will Epic refund me for all of the assets I have bought through marketplace? Its becoming pretty clear its unusable.

Additional Notes

I made this thread in October.

2

just uninstalled epic launcher and unreal and reinstalled, AGAIN.
Nothing changed.

3

I tried 5.4 again.
I think this may be the most useless software I have ever used!
I think I am running at around 10% of actual development time with the software without it crashing!
Quite the record! Maybe THE most useless software ever made!

I would like a refund on ALL of my assets please Epic, as you dont like responding to my emails or bugs.

4

Just reseated gpu and changed cables to psu (just in case).
Nope! Unreal Engine still the most useless software ever created!

5

Uninstalled 566.36 nvidea drivers and installed 565.90 instead.
Unreal Engine 5 is still useless.

Going to ddu and uninstall 565.90 and try 561.09 Studio drivers for gpu.

Edit:

I tried changing the DX12 to DX11 and it worked for a bit before crashing and freezing my PC!
I cant believe I thought that might work!
I need lumen and nanite enabled for my work of course so I need dx12 anyway but what was I thinking! lol! Of course its not going to work!

I think it might be Nvidea GPUs that dont work with unreal engine maybe?
I dont know why they put RTX into unreal engine 5 when t doesnt work but then again why did they put in nanite, lumen and megalights?

I think unreal might be good if you want to learn windows debugging or if you have an AMD maybe?

I tried undervolting and frequency change in Afterburner again.
I dont know why I bothered! lol!
