hello all,
i recently bought a Hynundai L90D+ digital LCD panel, which i have plugged in to my geforce4 via a DVI cable. after reading a text on color management, i thought i would do some poor-man’s calibration, via Adobe’s Gamma tool. (id rather hold off on buying monitor calibration hardware/software until after i see results from the AG tool, which is better than doing nothing at all). i am running windows xp.
trying to use Adobe Gamma to calibrate the monitor. from the book ive read, the first step is to begin by loading the monitor’s provided ICC profile as a starting point, and tweak it from there using the utility. Hyundai provides this file:
L90DPD.ICM
(L90DPA.ICM too, which i assume is for the analog cable use)
….however when i load it, AG kicks me this message:
"The selected profile is not a legal RGB display profile"
i am sure this is related to another error i get when i load CS2 and have the same profile set as my default (via windows):
The monitor profile "Colorific: PnP VESA DDC – HYUNDAI ImageQuest L90D Digital" appears to be defective. Please rerun your monitor calibration software.
any idea whats up? is it because this is a ".ICM" and not a ".ICC" file? are they the same things?
thanks!
