7800GT color calibration tool ??
Does anyone know of utility program for color calibration for this
card, using a "greyscale" application (as used in graphic arts)? Monitor is Dell 2005FPW, not that it matters so much, only to say I do not want to use the auto adjust, etc. Also the greyscale is best way to achieve correct color across the tonal spectrum i.e. highlights to shadow end. I've gone thru all the "on card" tweaks, but know I can get much better if I can find said tool. Thanks!

I've been conetmplating getting a hardware calibration tool as well.
Although, to be honest, using the sRGB colour setting on the monitor really gives great results out of the box "trifecta" wrote in message oups.com... edde, thanks for the reply. don't think we are going to get an answer here. if you find, please post here, and I'll do same. i really think it is out there, with some kind of cmyk conversion to rgb. i intend to keep looking.

I don't have PhotoShop installed. Might be worth it to purchase, if
ICC profile tool is in their bottom rung version. Do you know? Thanks for the tip!

7800GT color calibration tool ??
If I set my color management to the sRGB profile, and set my 2005fpw to the
sRGB color profile, I get very good results without additional calibration. I think Dell does some in factory tweaking of the sRGB color setting for each monitor, because I tried 3 of them, and the RGB settings for the sRGB color preset was slightly different for each.
