    [SOLVED] Laptop's built-in display previously ran at 90Hz, now it's capped at 60Hz ?

    When I open the Nvidia Control Panel, this is what I see. Essentially, there is no display section which would allow me to change the resolution of my in-built monitor.

    Computer taking 12+ hours to start

    I'm currently writing this from my spare laptop, the computer still hasn't got working. If it does happen to start, then I'll check it's hard drive health, but otherwise last night I did disconnect the hard drive from the rest of the computer and reconnect it, but there has been no improvement...
