Re: Screensaver/Sleep problem...

The newsletter does not provide the information we need about the 
Spyder3 Utility.  The newsletter describes what the tabs are - but 
that "information" is clear once you luanch the utility. (I suppose 
if you are wondering if you should install the newest version - no 
longer 3.06, now 3.07 - the newsletter tidbit is interesting.) What 
we need is more detailed information,  such as explain how often and 
why we need to "Load Video Card LUT". Or explain the 
benefit/necessity of Certification. Does Certification ad a process 
or service to Vista/XP that could cause a conflict? 
I have sent email to Tech Support, have not received answers. Whoever 
is writing the software must know - would help us if a document was 
put on your website explaining such matters.

Ambient Light status.

number of choices for Certification frequency, and a Recalibration 
section offers choices for frequency of Recalibration checks and 
reminders.
