Entityshininess sucks on my computer :(

I've only just noticed it when I transferred my program to my older (and much worse) computer. On that one, my spaceships (which are set to entityshininess 1) are VERY bright and shiny, but on this one, they're rather dull and yellowy. Strange, because this computer has a Geforce4 and an excellent monitor, whereas my old one has a very old Radeon and poor monitor.

Is this some setting on the 3d card that I can fiddle around with?

maybe it's your monitors gamma/brightness/contrast etc settings

I doubt it.

It is more likely to be a driver issue. One question, does the demo have fog?
