    What do you mean by 'the screen becomes unstable'? Try disabling the ambient light sensor, if your computer has one.

    Have you tried updating the drivers and/or the BIOS?

    Screen flickering has appeared on some of the new LED screens. I recommend you upgrade to the latest drivers from Nvidia and to the latest BIOS. If it still happens, call Dell and ask for a screen replacement. I did that and they came next morning and replaced the screen. All is well now.
