However, after clicking OK and restarting, the brightness, contrast, etc have changed and i had to re-adjust my monitor with other values, so i wanna know whether it's normal or not.

If you're using HDMI, use a custom extension block and add an HDMI support data block. Also, make sure the output color format is set correctly in the NVIDIA control panel. The monitor may behave differently with RGB vs. YCbCr.

"LCD standard" uses the CEA standard timing parameters for 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz (2200x1125 total, 148.50 MHz pixel clock). Both TVs and monitors normally use those timing parameters for 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz.

(my brother has the same monitor but he is using windows XP because he has only 2GBs of RAM and he won't be able to play on another windows). Thank You

That's handled by the graphics driver based on the monitor's EDID. CRU creates EDID overrides, which aren't supported with XP drivers.
