After replacing the hard drive in a 15.6-inch laptop, a technician completes a fresh Windows installation. The desktop loads, but icons appear oversized and text looks slightly blurry, even though Device Manager shows the correct graphics driver. Which display setting should the technician adjust first to restore proper image clarity?
Disable hardware acceleration in the web browser.
Change the screen resolution to the panel's native 1920x1080 setting.
LCD panels look sharpest only at their native (recommended) resolution. When Windows uses a lower resolution, each image pixel must be interpolated across multiple panel pixels, making icons appear large and text fuzzy. Setting the display to the panel's native 1920x1080 resolution restores one-to-one pixel mapping and eliminates the blurriness. Refresh-rate changes, blue-light filters, or browser acceleration do not address the underlying scaling issue.
