use of independant color profiles for dual displays.

[Guest]

Hi all at MS, (and others

Is there anyone who knows if MS has planned to support independant display calibration profiles in the upcoming WinXP SP2

I use a Matrox Parhelia with two Eizo TFT's in dual head setup for color critical work. The calibration will be done
with a professional entry colorimeter.
When I believe the supports desks at Matrox, GretagMacbeth, Monaco, ColorVision, 3dLabs and Eizo, it is a MS issu
not to support the dual( tripple, etc ..) ICM profiles within a single AGP slot.

Q'
1) Is this issue already adressed at MS ? ( It is at the support desks at Matrox and 3dLabs
2) Will there be solution within a forseeable time
3) Is there a workaround

I think I am not the only one working with color and using a dual display setup. Remind prepress, web, DCC
all large GIS systems, where multiple dislays setups become more and more in use..

Thanks in advance

PS: Dual display color calibration is not an issue on the Mac

My nVidia card supports profiles & other independent
adjustments to the 2 monitors I have with desktop
extended. Also has amazing capabilities in 40 tabs of
driver. 64MB card now $65.

Dont know what MS supports but I wopuldnt hold my
breath. Most ppl dont know or care about
profiles/calibration- Graphics NGs know more.

Any advise is my attempt to contribute more than I have received but I can only assure you that it works on my PC. GOOD LUCK.
