After using AMD and Nvidia for the last 6 years I recently built a machine based on a Conroe E6700 and an MSI 1900XTX.
Everythings been great except for one thing; games on this rig are extremely dark. Ive adjusted the brightness and contrast on my monitor (Viewsonic P225f) and tried different drivers to no effect.
Ive managed to work around the problem in games based on the Doom III engine by setting r_gamma but CS:Source and HL2M are still so dark as to be unplayable. Ive been searching for an equivalent command to r_gamma in Source based games but havent had any luck. Is there such a thing? Or am I missing something in the Catalyst drivers? The Full screen 3D settings dont seem to have any effect on games, which seems odd. But then again, the Catalyst control panel is taking some getting used to.
