    I would like to adjust color temperature on HP 4740s (HD 4000 + AMD 7650M), and there is no such option neither in Intel drivers nor in AMD drivers. Both drivers are latest downloaded from official websites. I don't want to perform display calibration, just make colors warmer on internal display so that it matches my external display.

    Download f.lux, you can tinker with it and make something work.

    rtnlstn, thank you, I installed f.lux and it made things better... However, despite I set my stationary monitor to cool colors mode (to compensate, since f.lux applies it settings for all screens, not just one), notebook display colors are still noticeably cooler. As far as I know, AMD drivers usually provide color temperature control, why not with this fkn HP? How do I fix this?

    iaTa, failed to install indeed, however was worth a try. Thanks one more time to
    rtnlsltn for pointing out f.lux, I really like the utility and will definitely use it in future. It made HP's screen bearable, even though the difference is still there I can live with it. However, it is very frustrating to be forced to use third-party software for such adjustments.
