AutoCAD Installation Issue on AWS AppStream: Resolution Error and Application Freeze with g4dn.4xlarge Instance

Has anyone encountered a similar issue when attempting to install AutoCAD on AWS AppStream using the g4dn.4xlarge instance fleet's image type? I've been facing problems related to resolution errors, and the application becomes unresponsive after installation.

You can follow this [guide](https://d1.awsstatic.com/product-marketing/AppStream2.0/AppStream2-AutoCAD-Deployment-Guide_1.pdf) and [blog](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/desktop-and-application-streaming/how-to-use-autocad-or-autocad-lt-on-amazon-appstream-2-0-or-amazon-workspaces/) to install AutoCAD on AppStream. Additionally make sure the graphics drivers are latest. Follow this [documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/WindowsGuide/install-nvidia-driver.html#nvidia-GRID-driver) to update the **GRID** drivers on g4dn instances.
