Cannot change display resolution in setup

[Jerral]

My new envy laptop will not allow me to change resolution display (ghosted out) in setup. The writing on screen is small and hard to read at 1920 resolution. Any ideas of the problem.

I make my fonts larger but that is not helping on screen display.

Hi@Jerral, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Try these steps -

Click on the Monitor tab to adjust the Screen Refresh Rate from the drop-down menu. 

If the issue still persists, try re-installing the driver - 

1) In the search box on the taskbar, type Device Manager, and then select Device Manager from the list of results.

2) In Device Manager, expand Display Adapter. 

3) Right-click on the Display Adapter, and then select Uninstall device > Delete the driver software for this device check box > Uninstall.

4) Restart the computer. 

Also, try updating the computer using these steps -

Step 1 Windows Updates -

2) Check for updates. 

3) If the updates are available, click on install and restart the computer.

I understand you want to know if there is a screen calibration that can make your screen look better than the other monitor's you have,
