First, I've purchased this same computer about 4 to 5 months ago. I suspect you haven't installed latest Video driver, firmware, BIOS and other necessary drivers from your Dell Product Support page. 

Support for Dell 15 DC15250 | Drivers & Downloads | Dell US

If my suspicion is correct, you can use Support Assist application to install latest video driver. Just type Support Assist onto the search box and then let Support Assist do it thing.

Here's an image of video driver in your Dell Product Support page:

You can also check Device Manager to see if latest video driver is on the computer. Right click window logo at the bottom of the screen, select device manager, expand Display Adapter, Intel Graphic, properties, driver - see image below:)

Sorry Support Assist doesn't work normally. You could try updating the Graphic driver in Device Manager. In above image, expand Display Adapter, right click Intel Graphic driver, select Update, and then Search automatically for driver.

I fixed it but I had to send it back to fix the battery as for some reason it stopped turning on but that was a separate issue

Great News! Glad to know you were able to fix it yourself. Thanks for the update.
