Since a few days I have had this problem:

Sometimes, usually while I'm webbrowsing I got this problem. Suddenly my screen turned black with a few white bars. I'll link a picture, I have no idea how his could happen. I have a legit version of Windows 7 and already reinstalled my video card drivers (Msi radeon r7 370) twice. Does someone know how to solve this?

How long does it last for? Do you have to reboot to get rid of it? Try hooking up another PC or laptop to that monitor to see if it is the monitor itself. If you have a spare GPU lying around, try installing that. It is possible the GPU may be on its way out.
