well i think i spoke too soon. i thought the crash problem was gone. but its back. 
all im doing…
i import my model with animation. i click on import animations
it imports my model and the animation. but my animation is black in the content browser.
i can drag the animation into the scene, run it & see the animation.
but this is where ue crashes, … if i double click my model or the animation. ue crashes.
ive tried to update my video card driver but it tells my i already have the best driver for it.
i could buy a much better video card but id like to know what someone at ue (the developers) recommend 1st.
(note. 4.13 never crashes) i could go back that i guess, but i want all the new cool stuff.
