Dual Screen Colour Profiles
Hi there
I've spent the last hour trawling the web searching for an answer on setting up individual colour profiles for a dual monitor set up and can't seem to find anything. I've found out how to assign colour settings in Windows 7 but it seems I can only have one active at a time.
I'm running a 24" Hyundai W240D monitor as my primary screen but for work (digital art) I use a Wacom Cintiq 12WX LCD tablet display. As you can imagine, colour matching is an important part of digital art as much as it is for photography - the problem is, I can't get the colours right...
I spent ages messing with the colour settings of each monitor to get them to match but had to keep resorting back to using my Datacolor Spyder3 Pro to correct my mistakes. The problem in doing this is that the Spyder will create a colour profile for each monitor, but it cannot assign each monitor it's own profile. I can't afford shelling out for a Spyder3Elite (which supports dual monitor settings) so I'm looking for a way of setting each monitor up with it's own colour profile. I've read a few way of doing it in XP but they don't seem relevant to 7.
Any help would be great!
Thanks
