Trouble Calibrating Moniter with SpyderPro2.2 - Very Blue

2007-04-30 by tech4x5

I just reinstalled my OS and am having problems calibrating Moniter .  
I have used used Spyder for years, and this calibration is quite off, 
very cold and blue.  I am running  Windows XP Home and have a Samsung 
LCD moniter and use PS CS2.  I have not changed any settings on my 
moniter since the reinstall of the OS, the Brightness is 50 and 
Contrast 100 and I have no other adjustments available..  Again, this 
is how it has always been.  I am using the same SpyderPro2.2-4 
settings: Gamma 2.2 & White Point 5800.  The moniter image is very blue 
and cold.  I have done this a couple of times and it keeps looking the 
same.  It is blue visually, I noticed it right away.  And when I look 
at the PDI test image on the moniter compared to a print, the lower 
part of the color bar on the right is not white, but pretty blue.  Any 
ideas what I might be doing wrong?  Thanks.
