Title: Logo Calibration loader vs Win 7 internal loader
Post by: lazarr on March 24, 2012, 11:25:35 pm

Hi all,

I am currently using a i1Display 2 w/ Eye-One Match 3.6.2 on Win 7 x64 .  Some time ago,  it was recommended to drop the LUT loader Eye-One includes (Logo Calibration Loader 5.0), and use the internal Win 7 method "Use Win. Display calibration" in Color Management, to consistently load the tables after every reboot.   

Is this still the case?  Are Eye-One users using Logo, or Win 7 internal color management ?

thank you very much

The only reason to use the Logo loader is if your monitor was calibrated using DDC to set the color temperature and luminance. The Windows loader only talks to the video card, not the monitor. If you do not turn off your monitor, it doesn't matter - the settings will stay.

Aha.  Thank you , that clears things up for me.   I thought the Logo driver was also communicating with the video card.
