    Hi everyone, first post here. I have received an M6500 to use as my daily PC for work. I have the 210W docking station and have it hooked up to a Dell ST2410 monitor via VGA. It has Windows 7, Core i7 840, Nvidia FX3800m.

    The colors don't match at all!!

    I have read the M6500 owners thread and they mention to switch to NTSC color space from sRGB in Control Point. But how exactly do I do this. A online chat with Dell customer support said all my color control is in the Nvidia. But I still can't get the cool hue off the laptop screen compare to my monitor.

    Once upon a time I did find a menu that allowed me to input a hard keyed number for the Gamma value. But I'm not sure where that screen is now. I am set up as an admin on my machine but I just can't seem to find where I switch to NTSC.

    So how do I access the Color Control screen in Control point? I see it mentioned on the Dell System Manager help screen but I can't actually open the menu?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Anyone? Perhaps a link to where I can download the latest Control Point that allows me to change my color space?

    Yeah you're going to have to dig thru that enormous thread. There needs to be a big FAQ for M6500 people.
