Rhino 8 - Annoying display of curves and meshes imported from Rhino5

Hi!

I just upgraded my version of rhino5 to rhino 8 and I’m not able to see my files propperly. It comes mainly from curves and meshes that i build in grasshopper. It just show me some sort of normals, or vectors that take the whole screen, and im not able to manipulate the file comfortable. Zooming in and Zooming out just makes the whole screen black, scaling the whole error. Sometimes i open a file and i cannot see anything due to this.

Also some curves that I import they just simply dont show up.

Does anyone is having similar issues with rhino 8?

I have a Windows 10 PC. So far rhino 5 has been perfect. I decided to upgrade to see the new features and because of course I’m sure it will be easier to work with meshes and many things…

Here I add some screens. I appreciate your help

Thank you

Hi -

Please open the Notifications panel in Rhino 8 and follow the links to the NVIDIA site where you can look for updated drivers for that device.
