Thanks for the reply..updated the bios from hp tool and it wouldn't turn on but eventually did. Windows 10 tells me the drivers are up to date. The screen lacks contrast and everything is difficult to read. I'd describe it as washed out but everything is there...just not enough contrast to read...

Newbie. The display is so poor I've resorted to using high contrast but not all functions work on the web. Bought after Dell e5470 would no longer recognize hard dive. Any way to improve? thx Intel(R) HP Graphics 530 1920x1080 Refresh rate 60.005hz Bit depth 8 bit Color format RGB Color space SDR
