I would just like to add to this discussion that i got the blue screen of death twice during Make2D in R8. It was a very heavy file, but i never had rhino blue screen before…
@brglez.primoz pls run _SystemInfo in Rhino and post the results, thanks
If possible upload the file to support so we can have a look

Sadly, I can’t post the file because the content is confidential and i signed an NDA.
On the SR version it blue screened twice, but on the SRC version 8.1 it didn’t (yet).
What was the error message on each BSOD? (If you didn’t record it you may still find the code in the system’s Event Log).
A while back I had a couple of BSOD’s that I ignored. Things got progressively worse until my PC became unbootable in standard mode. I ran Memtest3 to check the memory and found it needed to be clocked back slightly (it was running at its specced speeds, but on my system, with my motherboard that was just too much). Because I’d ignored the initial signals, memory failures had the opportunity to corrupt files which accelerated towards meltdown. Thing is, this showed up in Rhino because it was the app that exercised my PC the most, but Rhino wasn’t at fault.

BSODs in 2023 mean something has physically gone flakey with your computer.
Insufficient power, cooling, something. Make2D does use all cores, so…cpu cooling? I dunno, who knows, but it’s not to be ignored. Your PC is faulty.
The stop code was: CLOCK WATCHDOG TIMEOUT
That means you have a system problem. Unfortunately there are lots of possible causes for that error, including:
Overclocking the CPU too much, overclocking the memory too much, faulty hardware, faulty drivers, corrupted system files, bios errors.
I would start by running memory and system diagnostics. Then check your bios and drivers are up to date. Then check your system files per Microsoft’s instructions and check Windows Update is up to date. Then reduce any overclocking.
Or dump the problem on your pc supplier…
