monitor

My monitor has suddenly become much darker (photos, backgrounds, etc).
Everything's still visible, but a lot of detail is lost. The monitor
brightness and contrast controls are at 100%.
Coincidently, I have a new symbol on bottom right of display "Intel Extreme
Graphics". Don't know if this is related to problem.
What happened? Help please!

Try a system restore to a point before the problem started.

some drivers have the capability of giving controls of brightness and
contrast inside the driver settings.

Look there
