    I got a LPL screen for my dv2000t. The display is very clear and I am glad I got a glossy screen. However, the color is not rich/vivid enough and I wondering how to adjust that.

    By not vivid I mean it is a little pale.

    What graphics card do you have??? The Nvidia has an option in "advanced settings" in the display options to raise "digital vibrance." There are also settings for contrast, brightness, gamma, and individual color correction. I am not sure if these options are available with the GMA 950 but I hope it helps.

    I had a similar experience with the bright view on my 6000z. Lke Artood2s already said, if you have an Nvidia gpu go into the forceware and adjust the digital vibrance...mines set at low which brought the colors out significantly.

    Do you mean increase the digital vibrance for better color, or keep it low?
