I know what you mean. I used to have a Daytek 15" CRT monitor a few years ago. It was good when it was new, but over time the colors got darker and darker. I turned the brightness up and tried the adjustments but that didn't help much. When I played SEIV it was very hard to read the green text for the organic resources. I used a monitor calibration program which helped a little, but I still couldn't see the darker colors because they all came out black. So I forgot there was supposed to be a blue grid background on the quadrant map. The improvement was dramatic when I upgraded my equipment.
