Picture Brightness on Windows

[Trevor DeVore]

Hi,

I have an image viewer application that reads images from a directory and allows the user to browse them. I had two testers working on Windows with the program who noticed that the images were darker inside the viewer then when displayed with the default windows image viewing application. This is what we have found so far:
1) On my old Micron box running Windows 2000 the images look the same no matter what program I open them in - Photoshop, Windows Image Viewer, My imaging application, etc.
2) A new Gateway Laptop running Windows XP displays the images much darker inside my image viewer then they display in the default windows image viewer application and IE explorer.
3) A custom built tower running Windows XP displays images slightly darker in all non-Microsoft apps. PhotoSuite and my image viewer display pictures slightly darker then the Microsoft apps.

These are all the machines we have tested it on so far and I am wondering if it has anything to do with XP. Has anyone else experienced something similar or now what might be causing this? Better yet, is there a fix?

Thanks,
