Well I am glad you didn't go buy a new video card just to find that the problem was in the adapter. Good Luck with it!

From what you are telling me I suspect the adapter to be the problem. I don't know what you have available to you but I would try it without the adapter and use a HDMI cable out to a tv or a monitor...

What video card? Confused.
I think my H430 just has VGA and HDMI connections, not DVI. More confused.

I am curious as if you use the same output that you are using on the second monitor that flickers if you use that as the main screen as a stand alone monitor if you get the same result?

Well, I was thinking a Windows 8 disc came with this computer, but it is only a drivers disc. So what did you use to do the fresh install of Windows 8 on your system?
