I got an ATI 3870 Video card with component out going to Television
and the DVI going to my new 22" Samsung 2253BW LCD monitor.  But the
stupid chooser keeps using the profile on the TV screwing them colors
up bad and not fixing the colors on the monitor.  How do I make this
stupid profile chooser use the correct display?

I'm in contact with Colorvision now on the issue.  It keeps selecting
the wrong display is the problem. It doesn't effect the monitor but
only the Television for some reason thinking it's the default.  Well
anyways I gave up on using profile for now and just did a color
calibration adjusting the colors themselves on the monitor.  It does
improve it alot maybe not as quite as much as with a profile but it is
useable now.

I notice the latest version of Spyder3Print includes an accessory called the
SpyderGuide. Does anyone know anything about it? Is it helpful?

I currently use a ruler to guide movement of the Spectro when I'm reading a
chart. Does the Spyderguide improve on that?

Is the SpyderGuide available as a separate item? I don't see it on the
Colorvision web site. If so, how much?

Lot's of questions. Any answers?
