First, let me preface this by requesting "dumbed down" answers to my questions, if possible.  I'm not a technical person, at all.  :)

I recently calibrated our Sony Vaio L Series desktop with the Spyder 4 Express.  The monitor does not give Kelvin temperatures, so I initially set the white point to Warm 1 (Neutral seemed too cool to be correct).  The calibration results were very green.  When I looked at a photo that had been edited by someone else who is also using a calibrated monitor, the colors were distinctly yellow/orange (on African American skin), so I assumed that my monitor was not calibrated correctly.

I re-calibrated with the white point set to Neutral and the results were much less yellow/green, however I'm still getting feedback from other's who are calibrated that my edited photos are on the green side.  I also just received test prints from Simply Color that are much greener than what I am seeing on my monitor.

Should I re-calibrate again using Warm 1 and assume that it's correct?

Also, I was just told that the color profile is not stored when my computer goes to sleep or is turned off - is this correct?

Thank you for any and all assistance you folks can provide.
