    Strange colours in games

    Hi all

    I've noticed in games (all games) I've been getting strange colours in mainly the dark areas, it's pretty hard to explain so I've included some screenshots. Is there any way to fix this?

    My graphics card is a Sapphire ATI Radeon 4870 HD, 512MB. My drivers are 9.3, but I also experienced the problem when I was on 9.2.

    What parts are the strange colours? With the HL2 pistol, it's meant to have the bright green glow in the dark dots. Have the same things on the real thing. With the other two games hard to tell if you haven't played them.

    Your gamma/brightness seems set very low
