How Do I Dim the Brightness of my LCD Screen?

Hey Everyone,
How's it going? For the last two months, I have been using a CRT monitor, and now I just switched back to my original LCD monitor. The screen is way too bright because I have gotten used to my other screen, and now I'm wondering how I can dim the screen.

I am using a nVidia GeForce4 MX 440 video card and a MAG Innovision 14" LCD Monitor.

thanks in advance!

Er, use the brightness adjust on the monitor, however that works. Just like with your CRT. Reading the manual might be in order ...
