Adjusting displays

MATTI · 20th September 2005, 09:55 PM

Got 2 used Dell 21" Trinitron displays yesterday, just fine but cannot adjust them
to look about the same colourwise. The monitors adjustment aren´t enough
nor are the Matrox drivers. Other display is seriously greenish, other somewhat
reddish, when trying to correct those I end up with messy grey colour palette.
I dare to open them but haven´t a scope or whatever needed exept a test program to do it by eye. -Sorry my english sucks but You get the picture, I hope.
Any advice needed, thank´s !

that's normal I think..

I had sofar:

ATI Radeon 9000
Nvidia Gforce 4 (man. by MSI)
Matrox G450
Matrox G550
Matrox Pahrelia

all these cards had about the exact same problem as you described.

and then these 21"´s are so off, it pisses me off....
