Hi Piotr -
We’ll need at least the SystemInfo from that system.

Hi Wim
It appeared again, this time in render panel.
Something is telling me that my machine is getting older and calling for replacement.
I am getting more alarming signals like all viewports black with no displayed objects at session launch.

Hi Piotr -
We’re getting lots of reports from users with these GPUs running the latest drivers.
Ideally, you’d look for an older driver that works. Alternatively, you can disable GPU tessellation and/or throttle back the OpenGL level that Rhino uses.

Thanks for the tip.
There are so many setting that can cause strange bahviour.
It is difficult to know, for average user, what they are for and what affect they have on overall performance.
One may be critical, other one of no importance.
Not the settings in the driver itself, but in Rhino: Tools > Options > Views > OpenGL.
Although I don’t think that those settings are going to help with the blurry text in the dialog. You’ll want to update your GPU driver, but not to the very latest. Probably some version of the driver from around summer this year 2022.
