Every time I paste/Import an image into Rhino 8, it comes out as a black box. It is most likely an issue with my computer, as I run an arm based system and when going to same files on other computer, it loads perfectly fine. Please get back to me ASAP, I have been struggling for a while now.
Please run SystemInfo command in Rhino and send us the results.

ARM processors are the problem here. At this point they are not supported with Rhino 8. But, it would be best to get a fully supported system as described here: Rhino - System Requirements
We have seen improvements in their OpenGL drivers lately, so getting an update might help.
Unfortunately it didn’t work. Any other suggestion? It actually helped to show again the tabs names that were dead. Now when I paste a image it’s no black anymore, it paste as a white image.
Hi im having the same issue is there any improvement?
Rhino WIP (9) runs in DirectX by default now. Which is an improvement in support for the ARM processors
