Well I guess its a driver problem

I have 2 systems running ati cards.. one has an x800xl the other an 1800xt.
After upgrading to the new 6.9 drivers I am having big problems in 3d games.

Example bf2...I go into the game and it WAY TOO DARK....almost unplayable.
I go into video and make a change and bam it looks fine until I hit accept. back to dark
again.

I am seeing this on both systems and all games....I have tried lcd and crt monitors and the problem is when I plug in a crt....

is there something new in the 3d settings that are doing this, bad install or ?

maybe I will try to find a previous version and install it and wait for a better set.

has anyone else seen this?

thanks for any and all help
