    This might not be the right place to ask this question, but I would be very grateful if you guys can help me. I connect my HP Pavillion dv6tqe to an extra monitor and they have different colors. The colors on my laptop's screen seem to be deeper, and my monitor is kind of more yellowish. For example in this picture http://i450.photobucket.com/albums/qq229/CamAnhHLU/waterxon.jpg on my laptop's screen the guy's arm is blue while on the monitor it appears to be green. Normally I don't see much difference, but I wonder if there is a way to make them look the same. I went to Intel(R) Graphics and Media Control Panel, tab Color Enhancement and saw that my monitor has 3 options to config: Brightness, Contrast and Gamma while my laptop has 2 more Hue and Saturation. I tried to change the saturation option but I couldn't make them look the same. Should I leave them as they are and not try to modify anything? Is the "green and blue" problem I mentioned above normal? What color do you see in that picture? Thanks so much in advance :)

    Two different displays. Different technology.

    You may edit settings all you want but they'll never really be equivalent.
