Potioncat:
I supect the problem could be easily solved "if" we had the right 
information, but isn't worth calling the Geek Squad. 

Adjusting the contrast or brightness on the monitor allows me make it 
darker, but it's already as bright as it's going to get. I think we 
tried to use a different monitor once and had the same problem, so it 
looks like the bug is in the computer itself.

By today's standards, it's an old machine.
