Re: wiziWYG v Adobe gamma

["Gary L. Hunt" <glh@srv.net>]

At least on my system (Win98, not SE), I did have a conflict because
I had previously run Adobe Gamma (which installs the Adobe Gamma
Loader in the Startup folder), and then used Wiziwyg to create a new
monitor profile (which installed a Wiziwyg profile loader in the Startup
folder.)  I could actually see them start up as Windows started, one
after the other.  I think if you want to use the Wiziwyg profile, you need
to go into your Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Startup folder and remove
"Adobe Gamma Loader.exe".  You also should not run the Adobe 
Gamma utility again, or the loader will be re-installed.

Once you have coerced Windows into using the right monitor profile,
it should show up in PhotoShop when you look at your Color Settings/
RGB Setup.   If it doesn't, you may have a problem with old DLLs that
need to be removed.  There is an article on the Adobe Web site that
explains this, but I keep forgetting to write down the document number.
