Hey there ,,
i downloaded DaVinci resolve 17.2.1 recently and it worked perfectly ,, now it doesn't open and always get stuck on "Loading Fairlight engine" and then it doesn't respond and then it closes ,, like in this image:



And i searched online for any solutions but i found nothing about this problem and re installed it like 5-6 times and it didn't work either

my pc specs:
windows 10 x64
Ram : 16gb ddr4
cpu : ryzen 3 3200g
vga : amd vega 8 2gb

Your computer is pretty low spec, but since you say 17.2.1 was working perfectly before:

Have you added any new hardware recently? Try unplugging any USB devices except mouse and keyboard. If that works, then you need to isolate which device is the problem by trying one at a time.

yes i know i am currently working with a low spec pc ,, i am planning on buying an rtx 2060 or an rx 5600-xt later (didn't buy it these days due to the silicon shortage)

i didnt plug anything except that i tried a second monitor on my setup (but i didn't use davinci then) and unplugged it again ,, Can it be a windows problem ,, should i reinstall my windows?

but when i scrolled through the logs i found a line that says :

so i guess it was the second monitor ,, but i unplugged it and still it doesn't work

oH it really was the other monitor's driver
Thank you so much
