How to calibrate new LCD?

[Pooptacular]

I just got an NEC Multisync 1760nx and the factory settings are really horrible, I can't even play Doom 3 on it. Anyone here have one or any LCD that needed calibration? I need a prog that can help me tune Brightness, contrast and RGB. Thanks in advance.

p.s. I know how to change the settings I just want something that can show me what I should be doing.

on my montior there is an auto-adjustment button that does that for ya. The brightness button does nothing at all. If you need it brighter go into the games options and set the gamma higher :)

This place sells a program that looks good, but its about $90usd.
