i cant really help you... every monitor is different and changing the settings is different. best i can say is check your monitors manual, or google for the manual

weird, according to this test my monitor is set up to dark, I corrected it now but everything looks much more blurry to me.
And the gamma-test didn't work for me:S

Doesn't really work for LCD's to be honest, since they change colour depending on what kind of an angle you're looking from.
Bugger, Bump, Sorry! I should really pay more attention.  Edited by Jooble - 12 April 2007 at 2:09pm |

Lol.
Nice one Ens, seems i can see lighter shades fine but the darker ones are hard to see. And my blue turns black too quickly.. and my yellow is too similar the deeper it gets. Hmm, i have no idea how to change my monitor settings... but owel! Good to know. |

Thanks for these.
I had to adjust the brightness a tiny bit. I would've thought this five-year-old monitor would suck. |

"baboy" is Filipino for "pig"
