I think this problem might be occurring due to compatibility issue between the applications which you have installed on the computer of yours. Well I am suggesting that you should try a clean boot your computer. Clean boot will help you to find out the application or program which is causing compatibility issue on the computer of yours. If this issue is not solved by clean boot then you need to contact Microsoft for this particular matter.
