Hi @Nivlem1,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be happy to help you! 

 

It sounds like the display on your HP Series 5 27-inch FHD monitor is not properly centered, which can typically be corrected by adjusting the display settings. Here are a few steps you can take to resolve this issue:

 

Auto Adjustment:

  • Most monitors have an auto-adjustment feature that can help center the display. Look for a button on your monitor labeled "Auto" or something similar, and press it to allow the monitor to automatically adjust the display settings.

Manual Adjustment through OSD (On-Screen Display) Menu:

  • Use the buttons on your monitor to access the OSD menu.
  • Navigate to the "Picture" or "Display" section.
  • Look for options such as "Horizontal Position" and "Vertical Position." Adjust these settings to center the display correctly.

Graphics Card Settings:

  • Sometimes the issue can be fixed through your computer's graphics card settings.
  • Right-click on your desktop and select "Display settings" or "Screen resolution."
  • Click on "Advanced display settings" or "Display adapter properties."
  • Look for options related to screen scaling or positioning and adjust them accordingly.

Check Cable Connections:

  • Ensure that the video cable (HDMI, DisplayPort, etc.) is securely connected to both the monitor and the computer.
  • Try using a different video cable or port to see if the issue persists.

Update Graphics Drivers:

  • Outdated or corrupted graphics drivers can sometimes cause display issues.
  • Visit the HP website for your graphics (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) and download the latest drivers for your graphics card.
  • Install the updated drivers and restart your computer.

Reset Monitor Settings:

  • If the above steps don't work, you can try resetting the monitor to its factory settings.
  • Access the OSD menu, navigate to the settings or setup section, and look for an option to reset the monitor to its default settings.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, there might be a hardware problem with the monitor, and it may require repair.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
