Hi @smaczko,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

The message "Dynamic Contrast Ratio OFF" on your HP 2159m monitor typically indicates that the dynamic contrast ratio feature is currently disabled. Here’s how you can address it.

 

  • Access Monitor Menu: Press the menu button on your monitor. This is usually located on the front or side of the monitor.
  • Navigate to Settings: Use the navigation buttons on your monitor to navigate through the menu options.
  • Find Contrast Ratio Settings: Look for a section related to display settings, picture settings, or something similar.
  • Enable Dynamic Contrast Ratio: Within the settings, there should be an option for Dynamic Contrast Ratio. Select this option and then enable it.
  • Save Settings: After enabling Dynamic Contrast Ratio, save your settings and exit the menu.
  • Restart Monitor: Sometimes, a monitor restart may be necessary for changes to take effect. You can turn off the monitor and then turn it back on to see if the message disappears.

 

If you prefer not to use Dynamic Contrast Ratio, you can disable it following a similar process in the monitor menu. This should clear the message from the screen.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.

 HP couldn't find a solution but I found if you go to
Control Panel
Ease of Access
Make the Computer Easier to See
High Contrast
Under that there is a box you can check         Turn on or off high Contrast  -  Uncheck it and it seems to stop the issue
