Hi @Axek,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be happy to help you!
Yes, it's possible to replace the display on your HP Pavilion Notebook from a lower-resolution LCD to a higher-resolution LED display, but it's essential to ensure compatibility before proceeding. Here are the general requirements and considerations:
Note: Warranty Concerns: Keep in mind that replacing the display yourself might void your laptop's warranty. Check your warranty terms before proceeding.
Physical Compatibility: The new LED display must physically fit into the laptop's chassis. Ensure that the size, shape, and mounting points match.
Connector Compatibility: Check if the connector for the LED display matches the connector on your laptop's motherboard. Most modern laptops use LVDS or eDP connectors for their displays. You need to ensure that your laptop's motherboard supports the connector used by the new display.
Driver and BIOS Support: Verify if your laptop's BIOS supports the higher resolution display. Sometimes, BIOS updates may be necessary to recognize and utilize the new display properly.
Power Requirements: Make sure the new display doesn't require significantly more power than the old one. Otherwise, it could lead to compatibility issues or reduced battery life.
Operating System Support: Ensure your operating system supports the new resolution. Most modern operating systems should handle various resolutions without issues, but it's worth double-checking.
Additional Hardware: You may need additional hardware tools like screwdrivers, spudgers, and possibly a heat gun if the display is adhered to the chassis.
Compatibility with GPU: If your laptop has a dedicated GPU, ensure it can support the higher resolution. This might not be an issue for most laptops, but it's worth verifying.
If you are not sure, I recommend you contact phone support for more options.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
