Setting Screen Color Profiles (T42p/non-Flexview/14")

#1 Post by Conmee » Tue Oct 26, 2004 9:19 am

Folks,

After adjusting my T42p's 14" LCD to correct for overly blue hues (Display Properties|Advanced|Color tab), I've noticed that when I first logon the color is per my custom profile, but after a few applets load, it reverts back to the factory color and the screen has a blue-ish tint again. As soon as I go back into the Advanced properties color tab, it re-applies my custom settings. Not sure if this happens with the IBM Preload by default or if something I loaded (anti-virus, spyware sweeper, etc) is causing this. Anyone seen this behavior, and if so, is there a registry setting that's used to force WinXP/FireGL driver to always apply my custom settings? Rather than spend alot of time figuring this out, just hoping someone already has... lol :)

Daniel.

P.S. Here's what I've settled on in terms of adjusted screen color profile settings... takes away the blue hue without overly diminishing brightness and contrast... still nowhere near as good as Flexview... lol

Gamma Brightness Contrast
Red: 1.05 2 102
Green: 1.05 3 102
Blue: .90 -10 100

Yea I notice that too. I also have Adobe Gamma loaded...which also changes the gamma at start up. Perhaps there is an extension conflict?

Esquire,

That was the problem. I have Adobe Acrobat and Photoshop loaded and that was changing my gamma settings... duh... lol :)

Thanks!

Daniel.
