Rhino 7 crashing at startup when connected to external GPU

Rhino
1

Hello
I’m using Asus ROG Flow X13 laptop with an external gpu (ROG XG) - AMD Radeon RX 6850M XT. Every time i try to start Rhino with the external GPU connected, it crashes on the loading screen. The problem doesn’t occur when using the build-in GPUs (both the integrated AMD chip and Nvidia one).
Is there any way to make it work?
Here’s the SystemInfo log from Rhino run in safe mode when using the external gpu (safe mode opens fine):

Well something seems screwed up s the OpenGL stuff is returning “null.” Maybe try a complete uninstall and cleanup and reinstall of the eGPU card drivers.

Didn’t help sadly, it seems OpenGL is recognised everywhere but in Rhino
