Moniter Brightness on CSS

[luckypapyrussam]

Hi there, i recently stared playing Counter Strike Source and it seems my moniter is really too dark, i have turned my moniter brightness all the way up and i have turned the gamma to full on the game, i have also right clicked the desktop > propeties > settings > advanced and turned everyhin full and on my desktop it goes very bright, but nothing seems to change in game, i basically cant see anything when i go into a tunnel, any help would be great.

Thanks

p.s. it seems to be least bright when im in game... (out of game if the brightness is full then its really bright)

A quick suggest if I may? Are you sure that you are altering the colour for the game rather than the desktop? you should have a look at your colour controls from desktop > propeties > settings > advanced.

Also what monitor are you using, and have you installed drivers/colour profile?

My moniter is a 17" CRT it is called a Gateway EV700 and i havnt installed drivers for it, could u point me in the right direction, and yet i have went into that advanced pannel u mentioned and turned up game gamma, still get the same thing.
