Black screen after exiting game

The last few weeks about 1 in 5 times when I log out of the game, my pc screen goes black and stays there. I can see my cursor and hit ctrl+esc and pull up a window, but when i try to open task manager to exit the swtor program or any other window, it goes back to black. The only way I know to get out of this is to completely power down my pc and then start it back up, which is a pain because then I have to go in and exit a bunch of programs that open and run at new startups. Anyone know how to fix this?

black screen is usually related to the video driver somehow, initially though delete the games cache file per below and see if that resolves the issue 

      Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars-The Old Republic\swtor  and delete just the file called discachearena then start the launcher and login.
