« on: June 03, 2008, 11:02:24 pm »
Hey,

Ill tell you what I already tried and the results.

I tried:

\r_gamma 2

Result:

SetDeviceGammaRamp failed.

I Tried:

Going to Esc>Options>System>GFX Software>Raising the Brightness to excess

Result:

SetDeviceGammaRamp failed.

All I tried any more ideas?

vista comes with very bad opengl support, install graphics drivers from nvidia/ati/intel/whoever made your graphics card.

Or uninstall Vista.

Vista sux! Uninstall it and install Windows XP.
