Got lag in projects menu

Hi! I want to ask something.

I just install Unreal engine yesterday, when I launch it. In the “projects menu” is very laggy I can’t even click a “create project”. When I Hover my cursor on something, there appear a some glitchy text box, text box is just half black. and I click “my projects” nothing happened. But, when I move the Unreal engine window or minimize and maximize it. The window has refresh and “my projects” memu appear. Just like the window is stop refreshing when I click or Hover my mouse on to something. And I finally got into Unreal engine editor, and I move the viewport camera, it’s just not moving anywhere. Just like in the “my projects” I minimize and maximize the Unreal engine window, it’s got refresh and the viewport moving. When I move the viewport again, it’s not moving like before. Can anyone help me? I and my friend want to create a game but this happened. Thanks before

My Spec:
FX-8300 3,3ghz,
8gb RAM,
R7 240 2gb

I use Unreal engine 4.18 btw

But, it’s normal when I use my old laptop that just have Intel HD series GPU

Sorry for my bad English

What you’re describing sounds a bit like the Nvidia issue revolving around GeForce experience overlay.

Not sure if the thing is live but last week AMD mentioned something called Adrenalin. It comes with the new driver and allows recording of gameplaym just like Shadowplay (or whatsthename). I wouldn’t be surprised if it came with some fancy overlay of its own.

Pure speculation at this point but I’d try disabling any overlays to see if the conflicts are caused by it.

I just try install old driver that still use amd catalyst, and it’s work. So, the problem is on the amd new driver that use overlay it self?

Driver incompatibility is not uncommon. It’s unfortunate that the most recent release misbehaves for you.

Rather than blaming the driver itself (it seems to work well on my end and I run an older AMD GPU); I’d bet on a combination of kinks in the driver, the way UE4 engine handles it and your hardware setup. There might be nothing wrong with it as is, it’s just a lot of factors combined preventing something from working correctly.

PC troubleshooting is often a mire. Glad to hear you got it working in the end by rolling back the driver. Consider flagging this as answered - it’s likely to lead someone else to a solution.

Cheers.
