You might try changing the screen resolution to one recommended by the manufacturer. otherwise the pixels won't line up well.
Sounds like the back lights are burned up. That will make it difficult to see. There are videos to show you how to replace them. But I don't know you expertise.
SOURCE: LCD monitor very dark.
The most likely cause for this problem is the backlight in the LCD. Over time, this light gets dim causing the problem you describe. I have never actually replaced a backlight myself. With the price of monitors these days, even if I could find one I don't think it would be worth my time and money to replace. But if you want to take the chance, try finding a monitor with a cracked LCD on ebay or look at the back of your LCD screen after you remove it from the monitor and see if someone is selling a used one somewhere by searching for the model number of the LCD screen.
