i have my old crappy monitor hooked up because my lcd is out of comission and its now impossible to play games like bf2 and source because its so dark. i have the birghtness cranked up all the way on my monitor and used my video card settings to raise the brightness and gamma to where i like it. it works fine on the desktop but when i enter any game it automatically goes darker, even with the games brightness up all the way too.

when i minimize the game, the game will flash to the brightness that i want it at before going back to the desktop and then it goes back to being dark when i maximize the game again.

i have a radeon x700 video card if it helps. the monitor is a daytek 17" and its about 10 years old. any suggestions?
