Can't remember how to do it exactly but on my desktop i've got a shortcut to the brightness settings. Not the monitor brightness, the actual brightness. I'll see if I can remember how I got it. :)

Try going to your Display settings and set some more gamma or brightness.

use a little tool called "powerstrip"

ctrl + "+" increases gamma
ctrl + "-" decreases gamma

and if u want to get the "full" version:

Powerstrip is nice for overclocking your gfx card also... Be careful not to clock it too high though, it may kill your card.

YOu might want to change the default settings on Powerstrip as every time you press ctrl + alt + - you take a screenshot :rolleyes:

Just a thought ;)
