Nvidia color control vs Windows color control settings?

[flycaster]

I am trying to set my monitor's screen give accurate renditions of my pictures. I use Quick Gamma to set gamma. When doing this I can use either Nvidia's controls or windows controls (right click desktop>Nvidia Control Panel. When using Nvidia's Control Panel, there are two choices: Use other applications control color settings or Use Nvidia settings.

First question: Am I correct in assuming that the former setting is Windows?

I always check the button to use Nvidia settings (and then Apply>OK), but when I go back to this screen at a later time, the Other applications control color settings is always selected. How come? I'd like to default to Nvidia.

Hi, have you found a solution to your problem?
I'm having the same issues and its just annoying going to nvidia everytime i reboot to put those settings back in.

Interestingly, no one has replied, yet. This Nvidia board is not very active...


One of the things I'm thinking of is that I have my monitor set to its highest and best resolution. Could it be that using this settings locks out Nvidia???

FWIW: I've experienced the same issues with the NVIDIA control panel. I've just resigned myself to making color corrections with windows controls. I haven't found a way to keep the NVIDIA settings radio button marked. Maybe I missed something in the user guide:
