Using a custom build, Radeon R9 270x GPU. Logged one one day, and the desktop background is very bright. The rest of windows 7 looks fine, just my desktop background is very bright, like someone turned the gamma up on just the background. I have it set to change the background every 6 hours, but it happens with every background. If I view the picture in my files, it looks fine, but as soon as it's my desktop background it is far too bright. Help?!

Can you possibly attach a screenshot of your bright desktop background?

Also is the task bar bright as well or is it just the background picture?
