Re: [datacolor_group] Spyder 3 / Windows 7 Laptop / Color Casts

2010-10-08 by Vampire D

Can you cut/paste them here, I have had a lot of issues with Windows 7 x64 as well with dual monitors.
One is blue and one is red. I've been trying to get this fixed as it has become bad lately.

Running Samsung 226CW as my Email/second screen and my HP LP2475w as my photography and main work monitor.

I would just have to repeat what I have already told you when you emailed me direct. Let me know how those suggestions work out.
