Hi i have a problem with my monitor, i think.
Well the thing is, in my old house i could see everything fine on my screen but since iv moved everything is too dark or i just cant see because of sun glare.
Is the only way to solve this to move my screen somewhere else do you rekon?
Thanks

erm.. the only think I can think of is turn the brightness up ect to make it lighter but you obviously tried it..

Assuming thre's no problem with the moitor, and that it's just because you're in a brighter place/room, then there isn't much you can do with your brightness and contrast settings once they're at max.
However, what about the video card settings. Some cards have drivers that allow you to increase desktop brightnes, and colour balance. Check the Advanced options under the Display settings.

Iv checked the video card settings and they wont let me change any gamma or brightness.
Il just change the position, or save up for a tft.

How about re-calibrating your monitor?
I did this for mine & the colours are true now. I noticed it was naffed because when I saved stuff in photoshop & then uploaded it to the web it went a different colour;)
