    I am trying to change my color profile by going to the windows 7 and when i add one of the ones from this thread: http://forum.notebookreview.com/dell-xps-studio-xps/382939-studio-xps-16-1080p-rgbled-settings.html

    nothing changes? the screen stays the same. I tried changing the system defaults too.. Do I need to give windows control from somewhere?

    I did this when i first got the computer. But I am not sure if I did it right. My colors in photoshop look good. but when i look at the images I saved from photoshop in firefox, they are mega saturated.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Try this in firefox
    1. In the address bar, type in: about:Config
    2. Locate a setting named: gfx.color_management.mode
    3. Set it to: 0, which means no color management.
    Then restart the firefox..
