RE: [Digital BW] How Photoshop uses monitor profile?

Some more info

I use Eizo monitors, but it looks as though this is not hardware specific

I had a problem with the i1 monitor profile (Windows XP)



When windows started, I could see that the profile was applied, screen
colours changed, and then later during startup, they flipped back to what
looked like the default profile (in any case just a lot brighter in my
case). In Startup, there was a utility called Logo Calibration Loader, run
from the i1 installation folder. I have no idea what this is supposed to do,
and didn't bother to find out, but I disabled it, and the monitor reverted
to the profiled colours I was expecting.



There is also the Adobe Calibration Loader utility which I assume tries to
load the profile saved during the Adobe Gamma process- I disabled that.



Sorry I have no technical input on the whys and wherefores of this process,
but it seemed to work for me



Cheers



Richard

In corresponding with Steve on various monitor issues, he asked if I 
was sure that PS was actually using my i1 monitor profile.  I had 
always assumed that PS used the Windows system setting for the monitor 
profile.  In researching this it appears this may not be the case.  
Although Adobe Gamma does not load on startup of Windows, it appears 
that it may b necessary to use Adobe Gamma to specify which ICC profile 
to use.  See Adobe document 321608 for the full story.  In spending an 
hour on the phone with Adobe, they are confused about how to specify 
the profile for PS or how to determine which monitor profile PS is 
actually using.

Clearly I am looking at PS through the profile, which affects the 
screen and all programs at startup.  But does PS need to know the 
profile to translate between working space and screen view, etc.?
