How do I fix a stretched screen?

Hello, Whenever I start my laptop, the windows boot screen and progressive ring are stretched. I've tried updating and rolling back drivers, I've used CMD, and more. I installed Windows 11 about a month ago on unsupported hardware.

NOTE TO ALL OF YOU. UPDATING DOES NOT FIX IT

Someone told me to go back to Windows 10, I did. Not resolved.

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Settings

    That screenshot indicates you have upgraded your version of Windows, but that will not solve the stretched screen that appears before Windows starts, because it is BIOS that controls that screen, if there is no BIOS update available, you probably cannot fix that.

    You have Windows installed in UEFI Mode, if you switch to Legacy BIOS and format the drive as MBR, that may resolve the problem.

    Just now I've got version 20H2. I can send an updated screenshot Monday.
