Flashing/flickering screen alienware 15r2

Hi everyone .

I just received my new Alienware 15 R2 and I accidentally push the Fn+pause key instead of Fn+F12 key

My screen then start flashing

I try to restart , shut down then restart again , change the frame rate of the monitor , update the drivers software of the monitor . But it's still flashing.

I hope this can be fixed .

If anyone had this problem or may have an answer please tell me .

Thank you

Hi, 

Try reinstalling both the Intel and NVidia/AMD drivers. Uninstall both of them first and restart the system. Install the Intel driver first, restart the system and install the NVidia/AMD driver. You can download the drivers from the Dell support site.

OK i'll try that and let you know if it worked

now should I download both the "video driver" and "graphic driver" for the intel HD ?

Hi, 

I'm sorry I did not reply sooner, I was out of the office. Just the video driver will be fine. Let us know how it goes.
