So Ive been waiting for the 2nd line LG Support to get back to me for a while now! Doubt Im going to have much luck!!


Ive just noticed that when restarting my computer, it shows the colours correctly for a few seconds..

Ill load windows up, and then log in to my account. Once it gets in and shows me the desktop before loading everything up, my wallpaper (one of the pictures of the cars I took) and you can see the bodged bits, etc. on it.. But then something kicks in and it all goes back to nice black where I cant see it!

Ive tried disabling a few things including Ultramon from the Startup but it still does the same thing.

Any ideas? If I can find a way to just disable it kicking in..

could be loading adobe gamma ( in control panel if photoshop to to cs2) or the colour management kicking in,  check in display properties, then (if in xp choose last tab) then advanced then colour management .

knighty

yeah, Id say that sounds like a colour profile too...

(right click on the desktop, properties, settings tab, advanced, colour management)

The colour profiles was one of the first things I checked unfortunately! Ive tried about 10 different profiles that Ive found and none seem to have any difference (just by setting one as default then clicking Apply..)

Would I have to restart the pc with the new profile applied to see any changes?
