I am on my 4th time calibrating...this stinks! I think my monitor looked better before I calibrated. I noticed my pics with black in them had some other funky coloring. I thought it was facebook, so I looked at my images in fast stone and those with black in them had some funky coloring. I followed your directions to the letter, I knew that was important. LCD screen and CCFl, i called Dell to be sure. Also, windows 10 has color calibration. Am I able to calibrate that way? Hope this makes sense; I am tired. Will try more tomorrow.
