I been calibrating my laptop first with the Eye One, and even doing it multiple times, the results are unsatisfactory. I tested the device, through its software and it said its fine. The main problem is the color is coming our greyish, washed out. To bright, I have the real version and not lite. I was hoping it was more automated, hence why I paid more. I got it a little better playing with the settings, but so far its not acceptable at all. Anyone have any ideas?
 
Laptop screens are not the best and wil not give great results when calibrated. If you want decent calibration results you will need to get an external monitor.
 
Try using a third party calibration tool, like HCFR or Calman. The default Eye1 software blows, though I hadn't tried the full version (the sensor is the same between full and lite). Also depending on the display type and how well the sensor is sitting on the screen, you can get odd results.
 
Its sitting nicely on the monitor, and I got the full version. I have a couple external monitors but did not calibrate them simply, because the effects were so bad on the laptop, I was stopped in my tracks heh.
 
The recommended for a laptop. I played around changing from native white point etc. Tomorrow Ill write down specifically.
