Troubleshooting

The screen looks washed out or colors appear dull.

The display is a 45% NTSC panel designed for productivity rather than color-critical design. Adjust display settings in the Intel Graphics Command Center to tweak contrast or brightness to your preference.

The laptop runs hot during heavy usage.

Ensure the bottom vents are not blocked by fabrics or soft surfaces. Check that the BIOS is updated to the latest version to ensure optimal fan curve management.

Windows Hello login is failing.

Clean the camera and IR sensor area with a dry cloth. Recalibrate the face recognition in Windows settings if the issue persists in low-light conditions.
