Default Re: Dark monitor

The average monitor or any electronic computer piece has a lifespan ranging between 3 and 5 years. If your monitor is 11 years old and your have the contrast/brightness maxed out while still having darkness... then its time to take it in the backyard and shoot it from behind to put it out of its misery.

Buy yourself a present and purchase a monitor of 21 or 22 inches. You'll be able to see your games more clearly which is probably better for your eyes since the other monitor is probably only 15 inches or smaller.

The only other possible variable for the darkness would be if your graphics card is having problems.
