Donald,

the lower line should be the monitor profile you
made using adobe gamma control panel.  It loads
automatically after you use adobe gamma control
panel and restart photoshop.

The top box should NOT be your wiziwyg profile,
but select one of the photoshop supplied choices. 
Picking "adobe rgb" is a safe bet.

You must also check the "monitor compensation" box
to view the file correctly on your monitor.


Oops, I've just reread your post and you specified
"wiziwyg monitor profile".  That profile should be
in the bottom, unajustable monitor line on the
bottom.  On a mac, if it's not there, go to the
monitor and sound control panel and select you
wiziwyg monitor profile from the list, restart
photoshop and it should be there.  Sorry, I don't
know how you do this on a PC.

Hope this helps and isn't too confusing.
