I agree, took me awhile to grasp that point.
I get 100% success with the device lost functions in the Plug-In on Windows 7 and 8.1. I use the internal callback functions which may be a little flaky in how they work with syncing and the render cycle.
The attached dll uses the device lost method I use in Dark GDK. This dll make the function Device Reset obsolete and requires modification to the code. Let me know how this works out, Please! Looking into what could be causing the leak.
