use " POWER STRIPE " that's a great program for what you want to do.
CTRL + => brighter
CTRL - => darker

Yeah, that 5 megs of RAM Powerstrip is using really takes a big bite out of my system
resources!  :-)

I've been looking for a certain utility for some time... but does it
exist at all? What I need is a small Win9x program that would sit in
the sys tray, and would only do one thing - allow for quick
gamma/brightness settings, and, ideally, also for video overlay
settings. Sure, the Nvidia tray icon can be enabled, but it's not a
very good solution, since it only brings up screen properties, so
entering gamma/overlay settings takes five more clicks, which can be a
pain in the, uh, AGP slot if you have to adjust this every few minutes
(for different video clips) - I'd like something that would be able to
switch to *those* settings immediately, or change them on its own.
Just a little tool to do only that, or not much more - not a multi
combine that eats resources and reset screen positions, like
Powerstrip does :)

You have it in your vid card's options .
1:Desktop Utilities/Display Quick Tweak icon in Taskbar.
2:Twin View/Device Settings/Colour control/Make custom Gamma setting
and save with a name like Gamma1.
3:Right click on taskbar icon when you want it/Custom Colour and
invoke(does not work with the some newer detonator drivers<bugs as
usual>but works with the 12.90(always) and the 12.83 sometimes :/
4:Right click on the taskbar icon after you exit the game and restore
hardware defaults in the custom colour section .
HTH :O)

I think if you check you'll find PowerStrip uses less memory and less
resources than RT, NVmax or the GTU - and unlike the others it runs in
an idle priority thread.

If you're not convinced, check it out with something like the
excellent TaskInfo2000.
