Rhino 6 crashing during render

I have tried rendering my topography map and Rhino keeps crashing. Has anyone dealt with this and what is the solution?

Are you rendering with Rhino Render? What resolution? How big is the model?

Also, please run in Rhino the command _SystemInfo and cooy&paste the text result here.

Hi -
You have only answered 1 of Nathan’s 4 questions…

Can you update that machine to run 10.15 Catalina?
