    How do you acess hardware color settings on clevo monitors.

    The laptop is a m860tu.

    i wish to set my Monitor to the sRGB color setting via hardware.. for digital work.

    i curently have my 2408WFP in sRGB and want my laptop as well.


    Please tell me this is possible.

    pretty sure the way you do for any monitor, if I understand what you are talking about

    Right click the desktop, choose PERSONALIZE, choose DISPLAY SETTINGS, choose the COLOR MANAGEMENT tab and the COLOR MANAGEMENT button, check USE MY SETTINGS, then click the ADD button and add the settings from the ICC file

    THis is more a windows question than a CLEVO monitor question

    He means the hardware settings for the panel, not the windows "adjustments".

    Unfortunately, most laptop LCD's don't have any hardware controls other than brightness.

    Thats really bad :(...

    Sigh... i guess ill have to try and make a fake sRGB mode via a Calibrator and software ajustments.

    :( this is really bad beacuse photoshop overides software!... making my LCD laptop monitor largly useless..

    I new i should have got a lenovo W700 or a biger name brand..

    Sigh at Clevo

    Almost all laptops don't have hardware screen settings, not sure about the lenovos though

    the w700 does have a pretty neat auto-color calibration feature, but pretty certain it doesn't have what the poster is looking for
