Some problems with my 15R 5537 after installing Windows 8.1.

With Update 1, things are getting even worse everyday.

In seven years, never had a single problem with my  HP bought in Portugal . Here in Brazil, I´ve decide to buy a Dell, because I was told they had the best  service, but I came to the conclusion they  have no answers for these issues.

Shame on you Dell.

Thanks a lot @casalvjarr.  This is the correct solution for this problem.

I´ve tried upgrading driver to 14.4 and it didn´t work. I´m sticking with version 13.9 as you suggested.

SOLVED. I've got a 15R 5537 with Windows 8.1 here in Malaysia.

Solved it by downgrading my Intel(R) HD Graphics Family driver from version 10.18.10.3412 to 10.18.10.3308 (downloaded from Dell website at http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/inspiron-15r-5537?retrieveState=True). Make sure you choose the right Windows version.


Current video drivers I am using:-

AMD RADEON HD 8670M:
13.151.0.0 (latest on dell website)

Intel(R) HD Graphics Family:
10.18.10.3308 (latest on dell website)


Both versions working well. Sleeping and waking up happily. :) Hope this helps everyone facing the same problems.

This is not a solution. Because when reinstall original drivers from Dell 3D graphics are too slow, so its a quality product issue, I want my money back

Not a quality issue because with win 7 there is none of these problems and works great... 

So they are right,  it is a driver issue...

Its a quality product issue because I paid for W8.1, if you are not a gamer just remove AMD driver and solve it, but if you install AMD driver grom Dell you solve the problem but you cant play 3D games because drivers from Dell are very slow so you hace to choice between play 3D games or closing the lid.

Dell technician , shame on you.

Dell costumers are being treated as guinea porks, because you cannot solve these problems.
