Desktop Brightness question...

I set my desktop brightness on the ATI Control Panel several notches lower because my LCD monitor is very bright. However, after playing some games and returning to the desktop on exiting, the brightness has automatically changed and gone much brighter. What causes this and why do some games only induce this?

Thanks for your time and help
DJ

Is there a way to save the setting, or have it load on startup.

BTW - I haven't had a ATI card in a while, so I'm unfamilure with the newer CP's.

digitalwanderer is an unknown quantity at this point

D3D games, right? I ain't sure, but I've always had the same problems with my ATI cards.
