For windows 8.1 settings like gamma/brightness and game settings doesn't work because it doesn't save and it is not supportive yet.You're not the only one to have this problem, I have the same one etc and no idea on the current issue resolve.

Strange behavior indeed.
Changing the built in gamma in wind8.1 don't work either

I've tried all the things that could be found using google, nothing helped.
Unless you can find the solution yourself, you will have to live with the default setting.
Perhaps your screen itself has some settings.

I guess I will need to re install win 8...Any ways if anyone finds a solution please report back so you help the others.

The solution is pretty easy;
Calibrate your monitor (use Calibrize with your monitors built-in settings) and then play AA as it was intended.
