just bought a Geforce 9600GT 512MB PCI-E graphics card, but everything is really really dark, iv got my monitor brightness and contrast turned up full yet when i watch vids its still too dark. iv tried several monitors and still the same problem..

anyone know of a fix??

Did you install the driver for it? It's always a good idea downloading the latest version from the website instead of using the one on the CD. Just go here and select the right one, then install it.

I have the same graphics card as you and haven't had any issues. If you are on vista there is an optional update for it - not sure if it's a fix or the latest drivers I would have to check.

Have you checked you are running direct X 10? If so try checking the configuration settings on that.

And is it just videos that are dark (eg. Is the desktop ok and are games ok?)
