Greetings @Okpeedee

Welcome to the Unreal Engine Community Forum. I’ve actually had this specific error, personally. This can be caused by a few different things and I generally recommend playing ‘process of elimination’ to figure out what is causing it. I’d start with checking out some solutions on this thread [Gpu crash/d3d device removed error?](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/gpu-crash-d3d-device-removed-error/514360)

Let me know if you’re able to fix it. If not, I’ll be happy to go into more information on it. Thanks.
