    My Huey Pro hardware calibrator has gone faulty, give me a green screen and it`s out of warranty, cost my £70 :(

    I have tried W7 display calibrator, but it is fighting with my Intel HD 3000 and keeps resetting.

    I found this free software called Calibrize and it works great, fingers crossed :D

    Nothing can calibrate with software alone, you need hardware too.

    I totally agree , but if you want help to get you display looking better and you cannot afford a hardware calibrator give this a go, I was surprised at how well it worked.

    Yea tried it, not so much helpful to me... All it did was tell me to drop my brightness low and contrast high so now my screen is all dark.
