    I am happy with my asus laptop w3a. But I found the screen saturation is a little low. I could not find anywhere to adjust the monitor's saturation. Could anyone please give me a pointer?

    Thanks!

    what graphics card are you using. nvidia or ATI?

    display properties>setting>advanced>>> have a look in here. There will be some tweaks. I've done it to my A6Km becuase I preferred the picture on my A6vc and needed to match the two.

    Its an intel integrated chip. You may want to try to update with newer driver then look for alvivo properties. I did see saturation on unrelated models. I imagine its possible for z63a aka w3a to have it as well

    Insane- that only gives me adjustment on RED BLUE Green, Gamma, Brightness and Contrast.

    Eddie,
    What is the driver's name that I need to update? I'd very much like to have the option of saturation. This is the only drawback of the screen so far.

    Thank you for your pointer.

    go to intel.com
    Look up drivers for the 915 chipset. The video drivers specifically. I dont know if those drivers integrate the alvivo property panel but the ati x1600 drivers do even though they are not intel drivers.
