Default How to brighten your monitor through "Properties" (When using an ATI VGA Card)

Ok, I have a really jank monitor, and on 100% brightness, it's still very dark. My dad showed me a way to brighten the monitor even further through "Properties", and I will now explain how to do so, in five simple steps.

Step 1:


On your desktop, right click and go to "Properties".



Step 2:

Once in properties, click on the "Settings" tab.



Step 3:

Under "Settings", click "Advanced".



Step 4:


Once here, click the "Color" tab.



Step 5:

Here you can adjust brightness, contrast, and gamma even further. No more dark monitors for you!



Enjoy!
