Re: [SPAM][Digital BW] Re: Calibrating a laptop display

2008-04-21 by Richard Smallfield

Hi Lou,
I've looked at the X-Rite site but can't find the file - maybe they've removed it? If anyone has a link could you possibly sent it to me?

Thanks for the tip about the I1 LUT Loader - how do I check that?

Further info on this problem:

This started happening after I tried adjusting the settings in the graphics driver prior to calibration - but, having returned the system to its defaults, the problem has remained.

PS - Very strange and interesting: I've just installed LUT_Tester that I think I got from X-Rite - it checks if your video card is compatible with look up tables. When I click on 'Test' the profile is re-loaded.

So in the meantime I have a work-around. Just click on that program when I start the PC every day.

Looks like it's a Windows Vista problem then?

thanks,
Richard
