n_scott_pearson, Thank you very much for clarifying that information.

matthfu, Thank you very much for letting us know those updates.

In order for us to provide the most accurate assistance, we just wanted to confirm a few details about your system, could you please provide the Intel® Graphics report?

Also, just to confirm, how many monitors are you using? PLease provide the model of them.

Any questions, please let me know.

Hello I am using one monitor i attached the intel graphics report, i think i did it right, and the model of the monitor sorry for the late response i never got around to doing it but i am doing it now.

Whatever you did, you didn't attach the SSU report.

I think that this issue is moot regardless. The EDID for embedded (eDP) displays is manually provided by the vendor (within their BIOS) and I do not believe that the tool will let you specify anything beyond what this EDID details as possible. I do agree that the error message they are providing is a bit misleading in this case. A dump of the EDID specification is needed at this point.

In addition to the SSU Report, please provide us with an EDID report. There is a reasonably good freeware tool for this that you can get from NirSoft: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/dump_edid.html. From a Command Prompt, simply enter command "DumpEDID >EDID.txt" and then attach the EDID.txt file.

To properly attach files, drag the files to attach from File Explorer to the Drag and drop here or browse files to attach area that is below the edit window for the body of your response post.

ok i wasnt sure how to do the edid but here are the files

[n_scott_pearson]

So, the EDID definitely says that the laptop's built-in display supports a 75Hz refresh rate. Intel Customer Support will need to investigate and determine why it will not accept any value above 60Hz.
