UPDATE:
I have changed the HDMI cable and since last 6hrs I have not faced that
event again. Will update in the thread if it re-appears.
Another thing happened when I was replacing the cable. I heard the
sparking noise in the power socket of monitor. So I tightened it up a
bit. So the loose power socket could also be the culprit in my case.
I am just waiting for another day and then I’ll try the earlier HDMI
cable again.
