Unreal Engine is exiting due to D3D device being lost. (Error: 0x887A0006 - 'HUNG')

Can you please fix this issue: Unreal Engine is exiting due to D3D device being lost. (Error: 0x887A0006 - ‘HUNG’) ? I updated the driver for my graphics card (Nvidia Ge Force GTS 450) but I still have the problem!!!

I don’t have this problem anymore after building the new project with version 17.2!

if you are using a laptop… do the following first.

connect your laptop to charger. open unreal engine and open file menu and hover mouse over it. if it works fine leave it. mostly the crash won't happen.

disconnect your laptop from charger. now again... open unreal engine and open file menu and hover mouse over it. MOSTLY NOW... THE CRASH MAY OCCUR.

IF THE CRASH OCCURS… DO THE FOLLOWING.

NVIDIA GEFORCE EXPERIENCE → GAMES → BATTER BOOST → DISABLE IT !!!

AFTER DISABLING BATTERY BOOST ON NVIDIA GEFORCE EXPERIENCE… TRY THE ABOVE 2ND STEP AGAIN. NOW…IT SHOULD BE WORKING FINE MOSTLY.
