Repair guides for displays (or monitors) for computers or other devices with video output.

The screen is too dark.

My husband tinkered with the settings and now the brightness is too dark, and the image is stretched vertically. This is a PC monitor, and not a flat screen.

Have him "tinker" it back.

Some monitors have a "factory reset" button or setting. Otherwise setting all the adjustments to 0 should be close to factory settings (or a good starting point).

Good Luck,
