Black screen during Intel Graphics enabling

Hi

My Dell Inspiron 5459 was giving flickering issues. I have got the display cable changed and since then facing very peculiar issue.

When the Intel Graphics 520 is enabled, the display in BIOS (Dell splash logo) remains in laptop screen, but immediately once system enters WIN 10, laptop screen blacks out but lights, fan are working. I happened to connect an HDMI cable to external monitor, only to realise the display moves to the external monitor, while the laptop screen is still blank....
Also, some other observations:

- No option to adjust brightness slider in windows
- No option to extend/ duplicate screen

This makes be believe it is a software issue, not hardware.

The only fix I seem to find is in 2 situations:

SAFE MODE BOOT
DISABLE INTERL GRAPHCS 520 IN DEVICE MANAGER

Ive tried updating both the drivers for Intel and AMD, resetted Windows but nothing works. Below is the system info.

Many thanks

Thanks, I will try both options and revert.

 

But your earlier solution of clean wiping BOTH AMD AND INTEL driver in safe mode with DDU and then installing Intel driver gave a ray of hope that it could not be hardware fault. Intel did work properly with driver enabled. Only when  in step 2 that I tried to install AMD afterwards, the same issue started coming. so can we say that INTEL can live successfully independent of AMD??

 

Many thanks.

Those were stock Dell drivers (Latest) shouldn't have that issue.
Now I am suspecting a BAD GPU CHIP.(Motherboard)

Remove Driver again and try this one

We were trying to avoid but Last option : Factory image restore from F12 > SupportAssist OS Recovery > RESET > RESET and update

Double Click on Driver file and choose extract instead of install 

Extract to a new folder any where on your computer. 

Open Device manager > Display adapter > right click on graphic adapter and choose update driver

  1. Click Browse my computer for driver software.
  2. Click Browse and select the directory where the driver files are located. (graphics folder) 
  3. Click OK, and finally click Next. Drivers are now being installed.

Yes thats the best way to do  it.

It removes stock factory image and downloads a fresh OS from Dell. 

This will the last step and if the display works fine after  this please pause windows update as soon as the install finishes and run windows show/hide troubleshooter. 

 

If the display has same issue even after this step, you will need a new motherboard.

This means you have done a full format on HDD earlier or used windows RESET feature in past. 

You can created a Recovery image using a below tool 

You will need a flash dive.

Use factory restore than. 

Or use a different USB tool to get the latest Windows image

Having the same issue , also checked from the service center they said that it is the matter internal graphics card, complete motherboard have to be replaced. Reading all the discussion here , I think motherboard have to be replaced. But now i am thinking of updating the laptop instead of purchasing motherboard  only.
