Bug Description
With the nvidia proprietary drivers (ex. nvidia 352 from their site) it works good for the external screen I have, but now the integrated screen is vibrating as per the attached screenshot. As you can notice, lines are shifted to left/right on several positions of the screen. It makes the use of the screen very unpleasant. So I usually switch it off.
WORKAROUND: Use nouveau.

I tried to upgrade bios.
placing the files on a (FAT) USB pen drive, going in the bios menu and selecting bios upgrade I got a "wrong file format" ??
it also takes ages to boot when I plug in my pen drive. (usually more than two minutes)
I tried to follow the instruction of putting EFI files on the pen drive and booting from it but I just can't boot when the pen drive is plugged in, blocked on the MSI screen with my keyboard blinking (blue or green).
It took me more than two hours to check everything and try, again and again.
next part :
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
