Dell Inspiron 15 3543 - Intel HD Graphics - Screen flickering on battery.

Hello.

I have a problem with my recently bought Dell Inspiron 15 3543 laptop. Whenever I unplug the AC adapter, the screen starts flickering. Everything works fine when AC adapter is plugged in.

What I have tried:

- Tweak power options - I've disabled every power-saving feature there is to disable at Control Panel, Intel Control Panel and NVIDIA Control panel - no effect; ironically, the "Display Refresh Rate Switching" option isn't available in both drivers for Inspiron 15 3543,

- Set "FeatureTestControl" in registry to various values - no help,

- Install both versions of two available for that laptop model - no help also.

I have concluded that Intel graphics driver is causing this, because if I uninstall the driver, there's no flicker anymore.

Does anybody know how to help?

Regards,

laudator.

If your laptop is recently bought and is under warranty I recommend not to play with it and to contact your place of purchase or DELL for better assistance.
