HP Envy34 curved display (W3T65AA)
Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

I bought a new laptop and searches now for the "My display" software, or similar. I use it to separate my display into 2-3 separated areas, where my programs are displayed.  But it seems My display is out of date and a call to HP support gave nothing. Does anybody know where to find this or similar software?

 

Thank´s in advance,

/Stefan

Welcome to HP support community.

 

I made a research and see that the software which you are looking for is no more available.

Hi,

I don´t think it´s an acceptable solution from HP, not to replace this software, with a similar new one.

What´s the meaning to buy these expensive monitors, if you don´t have any software to take advantage of it?

Is there really no other software, that does the same job?

 

Regards

Find and install monitor drivers for Windows

  1. Use an installation disc:

    • If your HP or Compaq monitor came with an installation disc, insert the disc and follow the on-screen instructions. You are done.

    • If you do not have an installation disc, continue to the next step.

  2. Check HP Customer Care to see if a driver is available for your HP or Compaq monitor:

    1. Go to the Get software and drivers - Select your operating system page.

      NOTE: 

      If the main Get software and drivers page opens, type the exact model name of your HP or Compaq monitor in the field provided, and click Next.

    2. Click the name of the operating system on the computer.

      If the operating system is not listed, a driver is not available. Skip to Step 3.

    3. Look through the list of available software updates and do one of the following:

      • If a monitor driver is available from the list, download and install the driver. You are done.

      • If a monitor driver is not available, download and install HP My Display or HP Display Assistant. You are done.

      • If a driver, HP My Display software, or HP Display Assistant software is not available, continue to the next step.

  3. Open Device Manager:

    Click the plus sign (+) next to Monitors, and then double-click the name for the monitor (Generic PnP Monitor or similar).
  4. Figure : Generic PnP Monitor listing in Device Manager

  5. Click the Driver tab, and then click the Update Driver button.

  6. Select Search automatically for updated driver software to have Windows search the computer and the Internet for the latest driver software,

     or 

    If you have a driver disc, select Browse my computer for driver software.

    NOTE: 

    If you are using a non-HP monitor and it came with software, install the driver that came with your monitor.

    A window with a Browse button opens.

    1. Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.

      An Install From Disk window opens.

    2. Insert the disc into the removable media drive.

    3. Type the drive letter in the Copy manufacturer's files from field.

    4. Click the Browse button.

    5. In the Local File window, double-click the folder name that contains the monitor driver.

    6. Click the Open button.

  7. Click Next, and then click Finish to change the driver.
