So, like a week ago I was playing Saints Row IV and suddenly, a wild white screen appears.
I just thought, f this bs, 'bout time to go to bed, so I did. Days after, my bro playing Minecraft encountered it, so I told him to turn off the computer, and I really looked into the problem. I tried reinstalling the drivers, didn't work, tried disabling either the main gpu either the integrated one, didn't work, at first it seemed like gaming causes the problem, but after some time it appeared I was wrong, as while testing it and just closed the lid to reopen, I found a white screen, since turning on or off and restarting, standing by etc. was kinda problematic with this windows 8.1 laptop, so I persuaded mom to let me reinstall it to win7 ultimate, which I am writing through now, got all the drivers, all the usual set up stuff, when suddenly, absolutely out of nowhere a white screen appears. Rarely you can see some lines there and there and that white screen going grey until returning to proper color... I'm absolutely confused.

Can't say I'm a computer genius, but I'm average, since I thought, and succeeded at those fixes, which did nothing, so simplify it a little but not like "Tip: The start button is in the bottom left corner, and you have to use left mouse button to click it."

EDIT: The cards are Intel HD 4000 and nForce GT 720m, all on the super problematic asus x550cc
