With a GeForce2 MX/MX 400. Just an idea...go to Display Properties (the place with your screen saver, etc.) and choose the Settings tab. Click the Advanced button and you go to an nVidia control panel...go to the Color Correction tab. There you can set the Brightness, Contrast, and Gamma correction. Mine are all in the center of their respective slider bars. At least this is how it works on my computer (Windows ME, nVidia GeForce2).
