Alienware m17x r3 blank white screen

Hello,

As it says in the description I have an Alienware m17x r3 and my screen is going completely white. Now I've done a little looking around and have noticed that others have had this problem while they boot, but this is a different problem entirely. My screen generally goes white when I'm playing a graphically intensive game and it has happened once while watching a video on Hulu. Generally I can get my screen back by physically tilting the laptop screen forward a bit, but that is not always the case. When I have been unable to get the screen back through the method previously mentioned I could get it back by making my laptop hibernate and then take it out of hibernation. So far that has always done the trick. But as you can imagine this is rather annoying, so I'm curious if others have had this problem and found a fix? 

*Note: When my screen does go white, I can still hear the sounds of the game, as well as, move my character around. (Found that out while I was playing a game with a friend)

My Specs:
Intel Core i7- 2760QM CPU @  2.40ghz
4GB RAM
AMD Radeon HD 6990M
