Default Need help adjusting my LCD

So, I can't seem to get my LCD settings right in regards to brightness and contrast, and normally I wouldn't bother so much, but I think my photos are looking funky on other's monitors, so can anyone recommend any good software?

When my desktop and windows look fine to me, all my videos and pics look very very dark, so I think a lot of my images are washed out on other's monitors when I mess with curves and shit. I can't seem to find the happy medium with good window/desktop view and good media. wtf?

My screens are like that too, for both laptop and desktop. What I do is whenever I watch movies or look at pictures I manually adjust the brightness of the screen. I know this is a stupid workaround solution, but it works.

this kind if sucks because I have no baseline for adjusting the brightness of my photos, so I don't know how they look on other's screens. weak.
