I have a dual monitor system and as I was changing things over to Vista I
still had XP running on the other monitor using a DVM switch I noticed that
the XP screens looked a little whiter than the Vista is there a way to
brighten things up a bit?

Thanks for any help, Rich

easily...

If you have the nvidia drivers from nvidia installed (not the MS one) then
do this
right click on your desktop and select NVIDIA CONTROL PANEL

from the menu on the left select >
adjust desktop color settings
see screenshot here http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/6263/nvidiajg2.jpg

if you DONT have the nvidia drivers I suggest you get them www.nvidia.com

tell me if this helps

Your only help would be a psychiatrist. Just FYI

Can you recommend one? Who have you been seeing lately? Doing any good?
Maybe when you stop ending every sentence you post with "Just FYI" we'll be
seeing some progress in your treatment.

Cheers.
