    Too dark

    My monitor, Princeton E070, is VERY dark. Even at the max brightness/contrast settings everything is too dark. I'm using a Matrox Mystique and the drivers I use do not have an option to make it brighter. Are there any programs that will make the display brighter?

      You should check your driver version. I run a Mystique 170 as a tertiary monitor under Me and the color controls in PowerDesk (5.52) work fine. If PD works when the card is tertiary, it will definitely work when the card is the primary.

          I just knew this was going to happen!

          Yes PD 5.52 are old drivers that were used in Win9x

            I assumed - perhaps incorrectly - that we were talking about the original Mystique 170 or 220, and not the G200 Mystique.

            In which case, I think PD 5.52 - included with the last G100 driver - is the "newest" version you could get to work, given a few simple changes to the install.inf file prior to installation.
