Black screen after GRUB / screen turns off

I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 14-3467 with Ubuntu pre-installed. I had to reinstall Ubuntu (16.04 LTS) and now I get a black screen after GRUB appears (GRUB appears only when I push ESC key). Later (after 10 seconds) it turns off (I had to change from UEFI to Legacy, otherwise I cannot install Ubuntu).
I get 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 5916 (rev 02)
when I type ~$ lspci | grep VGA
by console.
Further, I got: Inter Corporation Device 5916 (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device 0789
by SysInfo.
I tried re-installing the Intel graphic drivers, however it says they are already installed.
Some users solved this problem by updating the screen brightness. It does not work with me. I was able to enter in (a really slow) Ubuntu by adding nomodeset=0 in the GRUB advance options (as here). However the brightness buttons do not work as well.
I can enter in Ubuntu by using an external screen. I modified the GRUB by uncomment the option GRUB_TERMINAL=console (as here). It works but just twice!
I think the system is assuming there is an external screen, and so the internal screen is just unable. However I do not know how to enable my intenal screen.
Any idea? Thank you very much.
