Hello everyone,
I have been using rhino for a while now but recently i started using it daily. Some days ago it crashed after opening the rendering view and now the rendering view is not working and shaded view is too dark.
I have tried to downoad and update my drivers but nothing seems to work. I am not sure why the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU (NVidia) is not being used.
Here is my Systeminfo:
