16 bit per your suggestion on your world of information site. :-) I was able to finally get it to work... it must be something with PS today. Everything was all kinds of wonky. Thank you as always!!!!!!

As of this morning I discovered (I have two systems) one LR preference was set to Adobe RGB and the other to sRGB on export. I corrected that .... no worries both are now set to sRGB (and yes the pain staking task of converting some files back to sRGB) Big lesson learned. BUT, I noticed that my liquify tool will not work in sRGB? Is that correct????? Thank you in advance for your help!!!!!

Thank you... I will stay with the regular drive at at least 2TB (I never keep anything on my system I run externals). You have been a great help!!!!

Stupid question... I was told since this was a solid state I did not need 1tb that I would be fine the 400-AJXC M.2 512GB PCIe NVMe Class 40 Solid State Drive 1 - - Otherwise all the specs you have mentioned are included in the above quote. I can request more... I just want to better understand the difference between the solid state and regular GB drive. Please and thank you so so much!!!!

So in your opinion this is fine... but, if done properly Windows 10 would be fine also. It's the same cost of this and a new XPS with Windows 10. I am thinking I may just stay with Windows 7 on this quote and I have another 5 years of support and Windows 7. LOL I am a old dog. :-)

Hi Brian... I am reviewing a new system for my space. I am running Windows 7 professional on two systems now that are networked (xps 8700's). One is 4 and the other is a little more than 3 1/2 years old. I don't want networking issues running 7 and 10 as I have heard happens quite often. Hence the following set up and I would like less confusion between the two work environments . Could I have your thoughts before me placing my order. I have monitors already.

I am going to keep it and keep and eye on it. But I have purchased another "new" one this time also. I am a back up paranoid queen. I back up to at least three externals all the time. I have never had one fail on me but always better safe than sorry. Thank you for your time once again!!!!!

I purchased a WD 2tb usb 3 external via Amazon... long story short it turned out to be a refurb. I have been working with the store owner and Amazon A-Z claims. I have researched the cost of the exact device. The refurb is 54.00. The owners are wondering if I would be fine with a credit down to the cost of 54.00 Would you keep it or be out the shipping and insurance and return it? It will cost me 23.00 to ship it back to them. I have scanned it and have played a bit with it and it seems to be functioning fine. Thanks Brian!!!!! You are always my go to.

That's what I thought.... I am just going to have to remember to saturate the pinks and reds more when it comes to any of the nature images. I even tried different labs (of course different results). WHCC is pretty consistent for me other than this pink issue. Thank you once again for your time and thoughts Damien. Have a GREAT weekend !!!!!

All the other colors are fine... it seems to be the light reds and pink.

The pinks are ever so slightly reduced in skin tone... not by much.

It's mainly the pinks and dark reds... This printed more taupe pink than pink. I hope that made some sense.

I've always had too much red in my screen vs my prints. When I went to check Calibration this morning I was wondering. I use Spyder 4 pro and my prints match (well with the exceptions of the reds / pinks). They are too strong vs my prints. Can I after recal go in and lower the reds on my monitor????? Other than the reds I match spot on. Dell U2414H
