When I'm setting my colour settings in Photoshop it prompts me to select a monitor profile for my monitor. I can use a generic one but they recommend using the profile supplied by the monitor's manufacturer. Anyone know where I can download this?

one way is to go to properties->settings->advanced->monitor->properties->driver and then tell it to look for new drivers, while doing that it also appears to install the 2407 color profile.

....i assume it would also do the same for the 1905.

Hi Elena,

look at the CD supplied with your monitor. There is a file with the ending ".icm", this is your monitor color profile. Copy that file to the following directory on your computer: "c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color". That's it, all You have to do now is selecting this particular file when your application (Photoshop) is asking for a profile.

Hope i could help a bit.
