Thanks for reaching out to the HP Support Community! 🎉
I’m here to help you troubleshoot your issue and get things back on track. Just follow these steps below, and we’ll have you running smoothly in no time:
- I recommend installing the latest drivers from the HP support website.
- Next, check if the issue occurs in both the BIOS and Safe Mode. If the problem persists in both, it’s likely a hardware issue.
- You can also run a diagnostic test in the BIOS (UEFI). This extensive test might take 2-3 hours, but it can help identify any hardware problems.
- Additionally, try connecting your device to a different monitor or a TV, if possible, to see if the issue continues.
Also, you may refer this document: HP Monitors - Display quality issues | HP® Support
