Brightness might be too high. lower it to something like 30-50 ,depending on what suit's you. Also adjust the contrast accordingly .

Hope it helps.

change the refresh rate...

Try Brightness around 60 and Contrast around 90.

Remember Contrast shud be kept high around 80-95 and brightness around 45-60

I usually keep brightness @ 64 and Contrast @ 92

Adjust "ClearType" in desktop settings

AFAIK, Refresh rates have no bearing on an LCD.

OMG! I tried this and it looked weird.

I have my contrast on 60 and brightness 100.
