Nowhere do you note what calibration product you are using. I would  
not be to concerned aboutva one time message about not being able to  
delete things, if the resulting profile is okay. As for running a  
third party utility for display resolution, yes that could be an  
issue. There is no knowing just how that interacts with the video  
driver and VLUT application.
