Windows Compatibility
Windows XP Professional
Rhino 4.0 runs well on Windows XP Professional. This 32 bit application has been around for a while and although it has effectively been phased out following the launch of Windows 7 it is still a viable platform for Rhino.
Windows Vista
Rhino 4.0 now runs under all Vista 32 bit versions, however Vista uses more system resources than XP and most professional CAD and modelling users still favor XP because of this. There may also be incompatibilities with some older graphics cards and drivers
Windows XP Professional X64
Rhino 4.0 is a 32 bit application and will run on Windows XP Pro X64 (but only in 32 bit mode) and although this is not officially supported it is stable in a professional environment. Running Rhino 4.0 in a 64 bit environment will allow it to access more memory (a total of 3GB - this can make all the difference when rendering with V-Ray, Brazil, Maxwell etc) and the 64 bit version of Rhino 5 currently in development will allow significantly greater amounts of RAM to be accessed.
Windows Vista X64
As Windows XP X64 - note that as with the 32 bit version Vista uses more system resources than XP.
Windows 7 32 bit
In simple terms Windows 7 offers the stability and speed of Windows XP with an enhanced user interface and ease of use. Rhino runs well in this environment. If you are upgrading your OS, however, please make sure that the drivers you need (e.g. for graphics cards, printers etc) are supported.
Windows 7 64 bit
As with Windows XP Pro X64, running Rhino 4 in a 64bit environment will allow it to access more memory up to a total of 3GB (the 64 bit version of Rhino 5 currently in development will allow significantly greater amounts of RAM to be accessed). Rhino 4.0 runs well in this environment. If you are upgrading your OS, however, please make sure that the drivers you need (eg for graphics cards, printers etc) are supported.
