This issue was caused by a Microsoft update!
The underlying cause may have been caused by NVidea or Dell. Who knows?

Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you upgraded your driver.

On a side note: My laptop runs continuously without restarting or shutting down for 15-30 days on average. This makes me focus on work and to leave behind any tensed thought that I may have of driver issues. Besides, Ravi, did you not notice that every second complaint with Windows 10 is the updates and how these updates mess around with drivers. If someone as simple and beginners as me can understand, then why can't Microsoft developers understand this?

I really thought that after 6 months Windows 10 would be a good upgrade. But time span gets closer to a year and yet Windows 10 is not my recommendation.

So it was not just me after all. For my laptop, update did the worst. There was like a timer of 5-10 minutes after which the laptop would itself just shut down (straight-away shut down without any "Shutting down..." message). It happened when yesterday I updated the machine to "latest software".
I have gone through a reset and it seems to be back in working state. I really think Microsoft releases the updates without checking what PCs it is going to be installed on.

Why are you always so negative?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
