Sadly he couldn't do it either. The buttons do not line up with the boxes and I have no up or down buttons. Also before I have a chance to figure it out it times out completely. 

Thank you Christina, I apreciate you taking the time to explain it. I've got a computer chap comming to show me what to do, I think I will grasp it better once I am shown, then next time I can do it myself. 

I'm going to have to get someone to show me, this is ridiculous 

The buttons can be pressed to left or right at best, not up and down

And the mouse has no effect on moving anything inside these boxes

Yes, this is what happens when I press them, but am unable to move anything in the boxes up or down, the arrows on my keyboard don't move the settings 

Where is the screen menu??? do you think I need a few computer lessons first and get back to you? This is very frustrating

Well pressing these buttons are getting me nowhere, I think your instructions assume I know my way around this computer which I don't.

I'm glad I was brave enough to ask

ok, the instructions from the spyder or your instructions?

So what now?

updated. im using an acer K272HL monitor

No it's a windows 10  desktop

Hi Damien, I have my test prints back and have downloaded my spyder.I'm stuck as I can't find where the monitor settings are. Shall I get a computer man in to give me a hand with it?im afraid the instructions make me glaze over a bit. Please advise, Kerry .

Thanks

its done. changed to 8 bits

where is my raw program? on the camera?

ive no idea how I arrived there...

do I need to change my 16 bpc to 8bpc before I order my prints?

please can someone tell me what this means : "you must be sure you adhered to the labs color profile requirements ( eg sRGB)  

This is what I will be getting, hope you approve 

Thanks Brian, as I told Damien, I have a clever friend who has offered to build me what I need for a fraction of the price, he seems excited by the prospect. I've told him what I need it for so he knows what to add on to it.

These people are so clever. They pretended to be Microsoft and after following their " prompts" I allowed them in, only to be shut out myself, before the real Microsoft unlocked it again. Or do you think the real Microsoft are posing as hackers to make a few hundred dollars? Who knows... Brian I think you will eat your words about hairdressers not being idiots. I don't think we caught ransomwear, but thanks for the warning.

Still trying to decide between a lap top and Pc. Have done a little research. I think you are the only person who recommends a Mac, others say they are a waste of money- why do you like them better?

another question, would you go for a refurbished computer?
