Kudos @JagNirMania1,  
that fixed my “GPU Crashed or D3D Device Removed” problem too.

Setup:

- fresh Lyra project installation 5.3
- UE 5.3.1 installed  
 → “GPU Crashed or D3D Device Removed” instant crash after project load

Fix:  
-LyraStarterGame\Config\DefaultEngine.ini  
r.RayTracing=True-\>False  
r.Lumen.HardwareRayTracing=True-\>False

Ryzen 5700G / 32GB  
RX 6600 / 8GB  
Adrenalin 23.9.3
