I can’t understand why my surfaces and polysurfaces are glitching out the way they do. When I click on the object, it starts flickering crazy colours and I’ve tried a bunch of things but nothing changes it, even opening new files and creating new objects glitches out. Sometimes when the surface is really small, it won’t register it so when I render it or open it the closed solid becomes an open solid. Any help would be appreciated
Can you run SystemInfo in Rhino and copy/paste the results here?
One other thing - are your objects very far from the world origin?

Yes my model is very far from the origin
That’s probably it then, at least partially. Try moving the model closer to the origin and see if that helps any.
Your graphics card with only 2Gb memory is quite minimal - recommended is at least 4Gb - and the driver is almost two years old. I would try updating the driver in any case. Finally, also try temporarily disabling Enscape and see if that has any influence.
