messed up gamma

[tpfaff]

So I launched the bioshock demo about a week ago and now when I turn my computer on the gamma is all screwed up and I have to start and close bioshock for it to go back to normal. Will uninstalling bioshock fix this?

you tell us? also try reinstalling video drivers. Thats the two most obvious places to start other than the bioshock or ati/nvidia forum boards.

well launching bioshock is the only way to fix it so im cautious about uninstalling it.

Uninstall then reinstall your graphics drivers like others have said. This will reset all the gamma settings in windows.

You should probably uninstall Bioshock too, because that will probably break your gamma settings again next time you run it.

Yeah, Bioshock did the same thing when I played it - I messed with the IN GAME gamma settings, and the damn game fucked up my GLOBAL gamma settings (visible at 2D desktop as well as other games). I've let the game sit on the pile of rubbish, because a bug like that is unacceptable.

I figure in another 6 months after I upgrade, I'll give the game a fresh try with the latest patch...but until then, I like my gamma settings the way they are. In the meantime, you could try the latest patches.
