I know this is an old thread but I just encountered this problem and found the solution in case anyone else runs in it. I'm running a GTX 1070, which has 1 HDMI and 2 DP. I had my DP cord plugged into one of the outputs and in game, the screen would go black everytime I died. The only way to get it back was to press the windows button on my keyboard and then go back to the game. Well, I was about to remove my DP cord and try my HDMI cable but figured I might try the other DP port. Once I plugged it in, I went back into the game and it worked, no more black screens after every death.
And before, I couldn't even access the video settings because it would kick me out of the game every time I tried and now I can access that menu just fine.
Oh and btw, repairing the game within Origin would do nothing since it's a GPU issue and not a game issue. Also, reinstalling the driver did nothing as well.
