Hi Vincenzo,

welcome to the Dlubal Community :waving_hand: Good, to have you here :smiley:

Have you installed the latest graphics card driver on your PC?
If no, please update it and try again.

If you your graphics card driver is up-to-date and you're still facing the issue, please share the IFC file here so we can analyse the problem more precisely.

:owl: Prefer not to share the file publicly? No problem – send it to me via direct message: click on my profile picture or user nameMessage.

Best regards

"Hi Clemens,
Thanks for your reply. To be more precise, the issue is quite critical: when I import the IFC file from Archicad and try to select the piles, RFEM doesn't just crash, but my entire PC completely shuts down.

I have already checked and verified that my graphics card drivers are fully up-to-date, but the problem persists. Since the IFC file contains professional project data, I prefer not to share it publicly. However, I cannot see the 'Message' button on your profile. Could you please send me a direct message first, so I can reply to it and safely attach the file?

Thank you for your help!"

Hi Vincenzo,

Please check again; it should work now.

Cheers

I have updated the Nvidia video drivers and I am testing; I’m not completely sure but maybe with these new drivers I might have solved it, thanks for your availability.
