HP Spectre x 360
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Trying to determine if a) anyone else is having issues of the vertical bands/streaks on screen display for the HP Spectre x 360 running Windows 10?

b) If so , is there anything that can be done to fix it other than throwing this laptop in the trash and abandoning HP FOREVER?

 

So very tired of these manufacturers that sell a product and just over two years later it has fatal issues.
