    Hi all

    Is it wondering what you use to calibrate the colour of your screen? I used the inbuilt windows calibration tool but that seems very limited. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    You need to use a hardware calibrator and displaycal (argyll CMS GUI)

    Unfortunately.

    Or you can send the laptop to me and the display calibration comes free with a repaste service.
