HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion DV7-1279wm
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Odd issue.  On my Pavilion DV7-1279wm I did a fresh install of Windows 10 64bit.  Now when I first power the laptop on, the display is blank.  Laptop is online and working fine, I can RDP into it from another machine.  If I do a reboot through the RDP session, then the display is fine and everything works normally.

 

Tried connecting an external monitor via HDMI on power up and both the external and the laptop display came up fine.  Then on the next power up the laptop display was good and I thought my problem was solved, but no the next power on went back to blank.

 

Tried toggling the monitor display from external to laptop when the screen is black to no avail.

 

Verified BIOS and video drivers are up to date.

 

Any ideas on how to get the laptop display to be the default when it first powers on?  It's just a minor annoyance for now, but it's getting old.
