My daughter has a Pavillion x360-m3-u103dx laptop. I bought her a 27" LG 5K Usb-C monitor wide screen LED for school distance learning. The laptop does not display on the monitor. I bought an HP usb-c dock along with an HDMI cord with a usb-c port on it, but it still does not detect the monitor. So, is this monitor compatible with my daughter's laptop? How can I get it to work? If not, then what would be the best monitor that is compatible with her laptop? Thank you, Beryl & Madison

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:
- Right-click anywhere on the desktop, and then click Display settings (Windows 10) or Screen Resolution (Windows 8).
- Make sure the correct number of monitors displays. ...
- Scroll down to Multiple displays, if necessary, click the drop-down menu, and then select a display option.
Computers and TVs have a wide variety of video connection types. The video connection on your computer must match the connection on your TV or monitor.
note:If your PC only has DVI and your TV does not have a DVI port, you can use a special adapter or converter cable.
-
Select a connection type based on your second monitor.
-
Monitor: VGA
or DVI
cable
-
TV: Video (composite)
or S-video
cable
-
High Definition TV: DVI
or HDMI
cable
-
-
Connect the TV or monitor to the computer using the cable you chose.
-
Connect a power cable to the TV or monitor, and then turn it on.
-
TV connections only: Change the TV video input source to match the video source connection from the computer (Line-1, Video-1, HDMI, etc.). Refer to documents that came with the TV for instructions.
Depending on the TV, the image quality might not be as good as that of a monitor.
-
Turn on the computer.
Use the video or graphics card driver to configure display settings.
-
Look for a graphics card or video card sticker on your computer. Common graphics cards include ATI, AMD, NVIDIA, and Intel.
-
Right-click an empty space on the desktop, and then click the Settings or Control option that matches your graphics card.
Your graphics card control panel displays.
-
Click the Display, Arrange, or similar option, and then click Multiple Displays, if necessary.
-
Select the display option you want, such as Clone, Duplicate or Extended option.
-
Click Apply or Finish, if necessary.
