Hello.

I have problem with my 2nd monitor. After connecting 2nd monitor and turning on PC i have display for few mins but after that my PC goes like BSOD but don't display anything.

To connect 2nd monitor I tried to use some Chinese adapter.

My main monitor is iiyama XUB2493HS and my 2nd monitor (what I wan't to connect) is HP L1908w. My GPU is Sapphire Radeon RX 580 and drivers is Adrenalin 19.9.2. OS is Windows 7 Home Premium.

That sounds like it could be a thing with the adapter, I used one of the ONN Wal-Mart brand adapters for HDMI to VGA and had nearly the same results.

You may also need to just double check that your GPU drivers are up to date.
