Now that I have an ati 4870 I also don't have the extremely dark nights anymore,

sorry mate, but I don;t think there's an easy fix
On my previous computer, I had an ATI card and the nights were very dark, but I felt it was realistic. I could start making shapes of my targets out at a couple thousand meters although identifying flags could be a problem. I tweeked the brightness and it was pretty bearable.

My new rig has a NVIDIA card and it is not near as dark. Sometimes I think it may be too light now. I don't have to touch my nose to the screen to see anything now, especially when trying to identify flags.
