I am running Windows 7 x64 w/ Samsung 226c & HP LP2475w.
I initially calibrated my HP and didn't bother with the Samsung as I only use it for email and I haven';t gotten around to it. All of a sudden (appears to be 1-2 weeks ago) I have too much red on my HP in all programs (color managed or not) except for LR4/PS CS4. LR/PS look perfect, but outside of that everything looks like it is over-saturated in the red channel. I have re-calibrated the monitor many times and even calibrated the Samsung. I went into Windows to verify the profiles are correctly assigned to each monitor and they are set for default.
If for example I load an image in Windows Picture Viewer it looks really red on my HP, if I drag the window to the left onto the Samsung it looks fine. I know Windows Picture Viewer on Windows 7 is color managed. I reset the monitor to factor defaults and then switched it to custom color rgb 255/255/255 (default 6500K).
I am calibrating for 2.2 - Native on both monitors. I've even tried setting the profile to sRGB for the HP.
If I load the image in LR/PS it looks good if I drag it to the other monitor, it still looks good (not as good but I think that is the difference in monitors, the colors look very similar).
This image my windows desktop (left) and LR3.
