In fact, it crashes the whole computer. Whenever I open a model that contains meshes, the last thing shown in the command history window is “Loading meshes” and then the computer completely crashes. I can’t move the mouse, I can’t open the task manager, it forces me to manually restart every time this happens. The viewports in Rhino all remain black.
I attempted to import a mesh into a new file (a very simple bolt nothing complex) and it was able to import the object and it was visible for a moment, but then when I made a zoom select Rhino didn’t recognize any objects. I tried zooming in manually and the bolt was gone, has if it hadn’t imported at all. After that it crashed again, and I had to restart again.

If there are any more specs I can give to make this easy please let me know.
I used this graphics card in a different newer computer with Intel(R) Core™ i5-10400 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz and I didn’t had this issue. The issue also seems to be solved when I replace the graphics card with a AMD Radeon RX 6400 4GB, but this is not a sustainable solution, I need to be able to work in Rhino using the AMD Radeon Gaming RX 560 4GB.
There are a lot of problems with Radeon 500 series cards currently, the first thig to try is turning off (unchecking) GPU Tessellation in Options>View>OpenGL and see if the crashes stop.
Thanks, Mitch.
We try to collect the GPU model and driver information and hand that over to AMD once in a while (every few weeks) in the hope that they fix the drivers. I’ve noticed that if we provide the fix while asking for the SystemInfo, we never get that information…
