Calibrating monitor

Hi all,
I just got a new 17" flat panel computer monitor (Cornea 1704). I'm having the hardest time figuring out how to calibrate it...every time I get one setting where I want it, it throws off one of the other setrtings. Now, I'm getting a headache from looking at a screen that's so messed up. Does anyone have one of these? The available settings range from 1-100, and are as follows:

--brightness
--contrast
---color, which contains
--R
--G
--B

Thanks in advance, as always, for your help.

--Brian

If your puter has a DVD drive in it, you can use the Avia or Video Essentials video calibration disc to set up your monitor. Some controls will inter-act with each other, so you may have to jog back and forth a few times to find a good blend. Keep in mind that ambient room light will have a major affect on your settings.
