Hi blumnkyz!

Did you try to turn off the computer and turn it on again? Is the computer boot up normally on the screen, or the screen still blank?

You can try to reset the monitor back to default, by pressing the Auto button (or there might be another button such as that)

well i have tried just about everything. the monitor still works fine as in it still has a picture its just that the option to turn the monitors brightness up and down is stuck on screen and turned its self to 100% i figured a button had gotten stuck but none appear to be and none of the menu buttons respond. =/

So only the brightness menu appear on the screen? Try to turn off the monitor and turn it on again after a while, see if the same menu still reappear. Also try to press and play around with the button on the monitor to make sure it is not stuck.

well after messing around with the buttons for a few hours i got angry and went crazy on one with a steak knife the button is ruined (its a 6 year old monitor so i don't really care) but the menu is gone!!!! :D
