Angry My screen is too DARK

My relatives came over, used my computer, and messed everything up. I have a windows XP and it is TOO dark. I can't see anything. I tried the buttons on my monitor but I guess that's not what they're for.

This isn't a windows problem, it's a MONITOR problem. You've got little buttons or knobs that control your monitor's brightness, read the manual.

it could be your monitor is meesed up. if you have another pc like a friends or another in the house try, hook it up to that and see if it works fine. thatll leave you with an answer to

is it the computer or the monitor?

if its the pc try checking the settings on the graphix card or the connection in the back.


if its the monitor you will most likely have to get a new one.


hope this helps
