Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP1 |
Of the 2 choices, Standard. It is where I would start to make my own personal settings. Vivid is designed so the sets stand out in the well lit showroom floors. It is the default, and is way to strong for correct viewing. A Guy | | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP1
