Hi there!
I’m new to rhinoceros , i just installed the software and starting to learn , and i have some problems with the graphics. When i draw any object with curved surfaces , the graphics make strange sthings:
Check your video drivers if they are up to date.
Please run the Rhino V6 SystemInfo command and post the results.
This will give us a good overview of what resources Rhino sees, and may allow us to make specific recommendations.
Thanks
The Systeminfo give me this results:

I think updating your graphic card drivers might help.
Hello - the display driver is 6 years old - if there is an newer one available from the Intel website, please install that and see if it helps - it may be that the video support on that system is simply not very good.

Hey , while i’m trying to update the graphics software , i have to say that i can run Solidworks and Autodesk Maya perfectly , and i don’t have any kind of graphics problem with them.
Is it possible to have lower resolution or something on rhino?
Thank you
Hi -
There are no settings that would make something like what you are seeing on your screen go away, no. That requires updated GPU drivers.
