UPDATE: after downloading the driver updates, my PC worked an normal for the rest of today, but this morning, after having the PC turned off overnight, the problems have resumed. However, this only happens when I first launch the computer, and a restart seems to solve the issue.

Hi KCWG,

I would suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the video card driver from Dell website as these drivers are tested on the Dell system. Please follow the steps mentioned below to uninstall the video card.

  1. Click on Start button.
  2. In the search box type devmgmt.msc and then press enter.
  3. Select the Display adapters listed and right click on it.
  4. Now select properties.
  5. In the properties window, under Driver tab, click on Uninstall button.
  6. Check “Delete the driver software for this device.”
  7. You want to delete the driver click OK.

After the uninstall finishes restart the system. After the uninstall finishes restart the system. Then reinstall the Intel video card driver first and then Nvidia card driver (If system is configured with discrete video card) on the system for issue resolution. Please enter your service tag # on the link above, select the operating system, and then download Video card drivers listed from Video section onto the system and install it.
