Every time I try to project my PC to a second screen this message displays: Your PC can't project to another screen. Try reinstalling the driver or using another video card. What should I do? Tried to update my device driver, but it shows I have the latest version of Intel HD graphics 4000 driver.

Hello;
Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!
I read your post about wanting to project to a second screen and wanted to help.
HOW is the second screen connected?
Asking because if you click on the Notification area in Win10, you will see a tab labeled Project, and if you click on that, it will show different screen options -- so you can project to a connected monitor.
However, if the Resolution settings does not show the second screen, then Project will not work.
It could be a problem with video drivers, but in order to see what is available, you need to follow these directions to enter your detailed product number: Finding Your HP Product Model Number | HP® Customer Support
We can proceed once you provide the information.

Hello WAWood,
Thanks for the earlier reply.
I followed the link and went to the hp software and driver download page. I could not find any driver for my notebook. Can you please help with this? Thank you again.

Sorry, but without the detailed product number, which I asked you to find, I can't provide any more information.
