Adobe Gamma
Hi,
I am using Windows 2000 Professional and I have installed Photoshop 7.0. Installation of Photoshop includes a program called "Adobe Gamma" which is placed in the Control Panel. One day I accidently played around with Adobe Gamma causing it to change the whole screen to gray. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe 7.0 in order to hope to change the screen back to its original color, but it was no use. The screen color stayed as gray. Now, I find that when I use any setting, which is over 256 colors for the display setting, the Adobe Gamma program changes the screen gray. When I replace the display card with a different one, the problem goes away. Has anyone had this problem? thanks. Peter |

Try re-installing Adobe Gamma and see if it reverts back to it's default
settings. Then don't mess with it, and uninstall it. KB "Peter" wrote in message ... Hi, I am using Windows 2000 Professional and I have installed Photoshop 7.0.

Thanks for all your replies. But the problem is that when I open Adobe
Gamma, the whole screen turns gray. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Photoshop 7.0, which uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Gamma (I think). The only way that I can prevent my screen from turning gray is when I set the display card setting to 256 colors. If I set the display card setting to anything above 256 colors and I have Adobe Gamma running, the whole screen turns grey. Maybe I did not uninstall the files thoroughly enough? Is there a way to uninstall Adobe photoshop along with Adobe Gamma thoroughly? Peter "Allen_L" ¦b¶l¥ó ¤¤¼¶¼g...

It is used to calibrate your monitor and should be very safe to use if directions are followed. I have *no* idea why it would change the screen to gray on your set but you should have been able to revert the change...did you read the help at all? ...Allen |

Have you tried deleting the .ICC file in which Adobe Gamma stores color correction info for your monitor? In my WinXp setup the default location was in the windows/system32/spool/drivers/color folder. - MCC |
