Trying to reuse screen set-up software

[Guest]

I recently bought a new computer from Dell w Vista preinstalled. When I first
turned it on it ran some kind of set-up software that enabled me to adjust my
screen (brightness, contrast, etc.) using some short films that showed people
playing pool. Since then I tried to adjust my screen settings and have
managed to totally mess them up. What I would like to do is go back to that
installation/set-up software but no one at Dell knows anything about it (or
even knows what I'm talking about when I mention it) & Microsoft refers me to
Dell. I know I'm not crazy (enough) to have imagined this set-up
software--does anyone here know what it is & if so can you tell me how to run
it again.

Meanwhile I'm stuck with a screen that hurts my eyes.

Thanks for any help.

That setup routine you describe is part of the Media Center setup.

Thanks. Is there any way to run it again? I've looked at media center but see
no way to run set up again.

Hi, Max.

In Media Center: Tasks | Settings | TV | Configure your TV or Monitor |
Watch Video.
