Thanks for the response Vince.  I don't have that exact problem.  My problem 
is I can't even "adjust" the Contrast and Hue. I can change the Brightness 
setting however.  You did give me pause for further addressing this minor 
problem.  If I get it to work I'll reply with my findings.  Thank you.
