Is it possible for a video cards' image to be fubard when using the dvi cable and connection on a monitor and then be perfect when using the same monitor and card but a dvi to vga adapter and vga wire with the vga input on the monitor???

I rmad my first monitor cuz of a green pixel invasion and the new one is the same... but when i throw the adapter on and use the vga cord and input, the image is fine... hard to believe two cords and two monitors would be bad in a row... so im thinkn its the card. Anyone have similiar experience?
 
When i put settings to 16bit color it knocks the amount of green pixels down to almost none... no ideas? (last bump)..

Update: just in case anyone is searching forums as I was... Sceptre sent two bad DVI patch cords in a row with my monitor.. I hit up monoprice.com for a 12 buck cord and omfg its twice the gauge..(like 4gauge v. 8gauge sceptre cable) and that did the trick. :)
