My mom recently, bought a new computer with a flat panel display. Since she's not using her 17" monitor anymore, she gave it to me and I have just it hooked up to my computer yesterday. I had originally, a 13" monitor that came with the computer when I bought it. It did fine, but I thought I would take advantage of a bigger monitor. I can't seem to get the Brightness and Contrast set right. When I try to set the brightness and contrast, it gets out of whack and I have to end up restoring all the defaults...then I'm right back where I started. I can use the monitor as is, but it's dark and the colors aren't as sharp as they should be. Anybody have any suggestions? Is there a program or something that can help me get the brightness and contrast set properly?

Was it working correctly for your mom? Have you gone to the display properties and selected the new monitor?

Yeah it worked fine when my mom was using it. She never had any problems with it. As far as I can tell, the right driver is loaded for it.

I think I got it figured out. Took me some time, but I did it. It's not as great as my other monitor was but I think I can live with this. thanks for everybody's help.
