When I log into EQ and then exit, upon exiting (through buttons, not hitting ESC), my screen get's washed-out/very bright and remains that way until I reload EQ again. Any one experience this issue of permanent washed-out display after playing EQ?

Yep. This used to happen on my old box before I built a new PC. I have no idea what causes this or how to fix it permanently. I will say, though, that after play-sessions where this would happen going into sleep mode would fix this. It's just kind of a hassle to have to go into sleep mode to resolve the issue.

I'm pretty dumb because I used to have this problem before my break in P99... I had a simple solution like changing resolution or some thing but I can't remember/figure it out.

EQ takes control of your software color controls ever since they tried messing with the darkness imposed on races with no night-vision enhancing traits or spells.

Specifically, it messes with the gamma and color brightness. (on my PC)

If I manually set them back to where they were before logging into char select, then save them, it removes that whitewash.

Not sure how helpful this is, but that's how I get past it.
