Hi -

I mean that there is something “wrong” with your computer.

Those drivers are ancient. Open the Rhino Notifications panel to get links to the download site for newer drivers.

I have also rhino 5 version and there is ok (circular shape).
So the problem its not with mine computer, but i will also check for the new graphics drivers if there are newer.

The two can’t be compared to each other as apples to apples, since Rhino 7 draws stuff in a much different way.

Ok, the problem is fixed with updating the graphics drivers, @wim thanks.
