Hi,
I'm having trouble with somewhat dark video quality on my monitor. I
believe I've had this issue for a long time, but I didn't realize it until
I
got a laptop awhile back and that screen is much, much brighter. My
Windows apps look fine, but if I play a dvd movie, watch a video, or play
a game,
it's way too dark. Where I run into trouble for instance is when my son
plays his LEGO Batmann game. It's so dark on my pc that it is actually
not
playable because you can't see half the stuff. It looks great on the
laptop. I have downloaded the latest drivers for the video card, which is
an older nvidia Geforce card. I have tried fiddling with the control
panel that came with the downloaded driver as well as obviously messing
with the
control knobs on the monitor itself. Any thoughts to why I'm have this
dark video?
Attach the computer to a different monitor. If everything is fine, replace
the original monitor. If everything is still dark, your video card may be
going. Uninstall it and try a known-working card.
