Quixel Bridge crashes UE5.4

Just installed 5.4 and now a couple times Quixel Bridge crashes UE before I have a chance to download anything. Also get the following error from the AMD Bug Report Tool: “GPU crashed or D3D device removed. Check log for GPU state information.” I have an RTX 4080 Super and am running on a Ryzen 9 7900X CPU. By the way, does the Quixel Bridge perform better if running locally and not online?

Hey there @3dJedi! The GPU crashed or D3D device removed. error more often than not stems from there being either a driver configuration issue or another service messing with GPU memory. I have a list of the most common graphical fixes for Nvidia cards here:

If that thread doesn’t provide a solid solution, we may need to look at the GPU breadcrumb log mentioned to see if it shows where the failure occurred. Hope this helps!

Hey, thanks so much for the advice. I’ll give those a try. BTW I already have the Studio driver installed.

hi @3dJedi ,

The most often solution in early GTX/RTX GPU is in the GPU Lightmass documentation still relevant to new GPU
