I've had this Samsung SyncMaster 997MB for about a year now and I'm not very happy with it. ..
The problem (well, there are several, but the one that irritates me the most) is that even when I set the brightness to the absolute minimum, I cannot get a true black. Normally, when you turn the brightness to zero on a CRT, it should look as though it is turned off. Playing games with dark pictures (like Thief or Doom 3) look washed out and grey. ..
ps - I have already tried every gamma adjusting method there is. There is a set level of brightness that this monitor simply CANNOT go below.
I have tested another monitor in my computer, and got the same problem, so I think that the problem isn't in my monitor, but in my video card. It is possible?
I have a eVGA 7800 GT PCI-E 256MB.
Another problem that I notice, is in desktop... in the right of the display, my files have too much bright... like this:

And with photoshop open with a black background, I got something like this:

Can someone help me please?
This is very URGENT for me because I have my eyes hurts... I need glasses because of this problem, I am working at home over a year with this problem. ;(
