Can't calibrate Dell 3007fpw-HC for Windows

2007-05-01 by mcennis3

My 3007fpw-HC is overstaturated. Desktop, web, Windows Preview, etc. 
show extremely red skintones. After calibrating there is no change on 
any of these apps. What can I do to make Windows recognize the new 
profile? 
I have deleted adobe gamma. Spyder 2 is the only thing in STARTUP but 
it didn't help. I installed Windows Image Color management and it was 
the only thing in STARTUP but that didn't help either. 
I have tried Basiccolor and ColorEyes with no luck. 
It is the only monitor connected to the PC. 

Every response from other forums I've gotten so far is that these 
apps are not color aware and cannot be calibrated and my only 
solution is to use my videocard settings and sell my new Spyder2. 

Photoshop does recognize the new profile. Here is the difference 
between a desktop and web image vs. photoshop/print.

Colorvision sent a new spyder2 which actually did make a better 
profile for PS but had no effect on everything else. 

Thanks for any help
