display wizard gone in vista nvidia display drivers

Anyone know how to access this feature, the xp nvidia drivers still have it,
but now i'm on vista the new drivers dont have this.

Can anyone suggest a free lcd/crt colour calibration software as the video
is rather washed out.

Re: display wizard gone in vista nvidia display drivers

your monitor has control buttons that can change the colors without doing it
via the driver...

see the monitor manual or poke arround by pressing the buttons on the
monitor itself

Thats no good, the display wizard help adjust the colour etc etc using test
patterns to help with accurate colour and tone etc.

For basic color settings and gamma, I use a small utility - Gamma Panel.

Works just fine in Vista

Re: display wizard gone in vista nvidia display drivers

You are wrong...

the way I say is the best way to calibrate a monitor and NOT from the
driver!
