Run ColorNavigator, choose your appropriate gamma and whitepoint, with  
the Spyder. Then, once those have been set in the internal board as  
"custom" leave it at custom and use the Spyder with the Datacolor  
software to build your display profiles there after if you prefer;  
that's what I do, and of works very well.
