Does your laptop have a discrete gpu? If so it is possible it was switched off and you are now running on the integrated gpu. Go to your power options and make sure you are set to high performance. Reply back if this is not the case and/or that does not work.

Maybe your laptop is still trying to output a display to HDMI?

Press "Windows Key + P" to access the External Monitor settings, and make sure your set to Computer Only. Setting to computer only should solve the problem... If not, try rebooting after making the change.
