Re: Windows Color Panel

2009-01-13 by bwinkjet

Hi,
Two ways to solve this perhaps.  One, while the Windows Color 
Panel/Devices is open deactivate a profile and see which screen 
changes tone.  Two, while in the software for the video card move 
monitor 2 to the other side of monitor one and see if the mouse moves 
correctly or blocks at the edge of monitor one.  Once you make this 
determination, you can tell monitor one from two by the name of the 
assigned profile.  A third way, and a bit more complex is to delete 
one of the profiles, reboot and see which monitor is profiled and 
then reprofile the other monitor with a discrete name to the profile 
and now you know 1 vs 2.
