Ok this is an old computer but has been working great for my cad ability. What I am having an issue with is viewing my surfaces and pictures. They are transparent or broken (incomplete) see pic. I removed rhino and reloaded but it still acts the same. my pics show up as a white background but will not display…
Hi Chris -
Please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.

Hi Chris -
That would be an issue, yes. I’d try to see if there is a newer version of the GPU drivers available and install those.
Apart from that, are you having issues with, say, a simple plane in the Shaded display mode or is this model and/or display mode specific?
-wim
all surfaces - it displays a surface different colors on each side.
Have you tried resetting the built-in display modes to their default settings?

I just blew out the current video driver and let windows pick and load one. This actually helped…

See if you can find a newer driver at the AMD driver site:
I have loaded the newest driver for the processor and the cad and pictures have come back thanks. The systeminfo still says no OpenGL but thats exactly what loaded when I updated the driver… I don’t understand how the file disappeared but we’re back up and running. Thanks again. CT
