    Yes, my T400's screen does not display a real color like the nearby desktop's screen does. It is a little bit bluer than what I think it should be. So, what should I do to fix this problem?

    thanks in advance!

    The quick and dirty way is adjusting the color gamma of the screen in the Video Card Control Panel (for ATI or Intel). Reduce the gamma of the Blue channel.

    The more accurate (and expensive ) way is to purchase a hardware colorimeter to adjust the color of the screen.

    It seems that this method doesn't work because I have changed everything which can be altered in Catalyst Control Center but still the color looks unreal.

    Besides, I can't use the combination 'Fn + F7' to change the display settings. In fact, when I pressed this combination, nothing happened. I have installed the LCD/Monitor driver from Lenovo's website. What's wrong with my machine??? :(
