For some reason when I play certain games and I exit them the brightness and contrast go way up until I restart the computer, one of the games I can think of is Quake 4. How can I stop this from happening, or at least fix it w/o having to restart the computer all the time? And it's not just this computer, it happened on my last computer also (had a 9800xt then, 7600gt now, so different video cards).

From what your saying it sounds like to me that your game is not setting the gamma on exit correctly. To fix it, all you need to do is right click on the desktop, click on settings tab, change resolution to a lower setting then click apply, then change it back to the original resolution.
