Hi,

Please do try to update your graphics card. first.
- Go to Device Manager and uninstall the graphics card driver.
- Download and install the latest graphics driver from the manufacturers website.
- Once installed reboot the laptop.
- After the reboot if you're using either AMD or NVIDIA open it's Control Panel by right clicking on your desktop and it show up.
- Make sure that your graphics card is set to use the dedicated card that it came with if it does.
