winXP display too dark

I upgraded from Windows 98 to XP and now my monitor is
dark. I have changed my brighteness settings to max and
installed the latest driver for my video card but it is
still dark. I saw somthing on the web about adjusting my
autoe4xec.bat file if I still had one. I don't. I also
changed the refresh rate but that didn't work.

Can someone please help me with this?

How old is the monitor? Screen becoming progressively dim over time is a
good indication that its time is drawing nigh.
