screen goes really bright while playing fs17 and most of the time stays bright after closing

Post by xXTHEBOMBSQUADXx »

so after finding out that theres a lot of people here to help i thought i might ask this question.

my screen will be normal but when open fs17 it goes really bright and will most of the time stay bright even after closing the game. i am unsure of whats causing this and its getting annoying when i want to do something else and i can barely see my screen. only way ive found to fix it is to turn my brightness right down in game but then i cant see anything.

Is it your graphics card or cable? Try updating your graphics drive and changing a cable and see if that makes a difference.

What's the 'Brightness' setting in the 'General' options of the Game set too?

If it is set to more than 1.0 then this is most likely the cause for your issue.
