Hi @silva97,

Thank you for joining HP Forums. 

This is a great place to get support, find answers 

I understand that there are white spots on the edge of the screen.

No worries, I'll be glad to help you, that said, I'll need a few more details to dissect your concern & provide an accurate solution: 

Are you facing this issue after an update?

Restart the computer and keep tapping F10 to access BIOS page

Check if you see the same white spots on the BIOS page.

Eagerly waiting for the reply.

Cheers!

Hi! @silva97, I am the Mr.Robot. It looks like you were interacting with @Raj1788, but he is out of the office today, so I'll take over from here.

I appriciate your efforts for writing back to us.

As you mentioned you still have display issues with your PC after trying out the steps.

Also, as you mentioned you don't see the white spot in BIOS.

I think you are talking about the display backlight, it would appear only if there is a black background.

So you don't have to worry as it happens by product design.

If the issue still persists in windows or in BIOS, uninstall and reinstall the display drivers on your PC using HP support assistant.

Refer this article to know more information about using HP support assistant.

Refer this article to further troubleshoot display issues with your PC.

If the solution provided worked for you, please mark accepted solution for this post.

Hope this answers your query!
