DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG solution

@asanal, very good but one flight is no guarantee. Hopefully fixed but a week with no errors will be more reassuring.

Why is this topic no longer pinned? 😁

I must say the suggestions didn't really work for me, I was getting a lot of crashes with the iFly MAX which was unfortunate.

Probably because very few now reporting the problem.

What graphics card? Have you followed instructions in the first two pinned posts?

AMD 6700 XT ... Tried those before. I had more luck copying some of newer versions of DLLs into the Prepar3D folder. I tend not to have these issues with the PMDG birds.

I can’t really offer any more than is included in the first two topics. It’s a decent enough card. I’m not sure what you mean by copying DLLs into the P3D folder.

Could that be because you had the post pinned though?  It solved mine years ago.

I'll know where to look when I eventually upgrade the PC and start afresh! Cheers

I only had the problem with the 1080Ti and the way I installed the drivers. With DDU and NVCleanStall the problem never occured again.

And I've not had it with the 4090.

From the C:\Prepar3D folder there are number of files starting with D3D. I took the similar named files from C:\Windows\System32 and replaced them (i.e. newer versions of the files) ... maybe placebo but seems to have helped me

I can no longer remember where I found the suggestion to do this though...

@level7, I can’t ever remember that tip.
