If you're using Windows XP: right-click anywhere on the desktop > Properties > Settings > Advance > Color, and tweak the settings.

Hope this helps.

There is a troubleshooting button among the Settings options which addresses flickering screens. Have you tried it? also what is your computer and os?

I found these two links in Dell's forums which have a great deal of information about yellow and flickering screens. Inside the first link you will find a link to a webpage showing Dell's response on how to resolve this problem.
