    Screenshot of the NVIDIA control panel, from your control panel and your brother's so I can check the differences.

    Thank you for the screenshots. Is your brother using an external display?

    What I'm thinking is that laptops can dynamically switch between the integrated graphics (Intel, etc.) and the dedicated NVIDIA GPU for power management. Check which GPU actively drives the display in both laptops. The missing Display settings might only show up when the NVIDIA GPU is in charge.

    Dell and Lenovo might use different optimizations within their pre-installed software related to graphics. Look for Dell-specific power management or graphics utilities that could disable some NVIDIA options.

    On your laptop, on the NVIDIA settings, if you click help, do you see any option to change the mode from Developer to other?
