Generally this occurs because of a corrupt driver. Uninstall the current driver and install the latest drivers.

Reinstall display drivers and also try this on safe mode and see what happens.

@mohityadavx: if its working now then keep it under observation....& if problem occurs again then reinstall the display drivers
