There was a thread on here the other day, now it seems to be gone, about the optimal settings for this monitor. Can someone reitterate what those were for me? Thx!
 
I've done hours of testing with this thing so can help you. For me personally, 75 brightness is about the highest point my eyes can take for extended periods of time. Next, contrast of 78 seems to be the best spot for that, at 80 you get some kind of crappy vanilla yellowish color saturating your whites, I have no idea why.

As for colors, I bought a spyder2 and it's worthless for this monitor, gives a horrible red tint in the profile. Just use the HP driver+ICM off their website.

If you run vista then your movie files are going to look like crap due to the VMR9 color and gamma which is all screwed up so set your 'video color settings' (not desktop color settings) in nvidia driver to:

55contrast
58saturation
13%gamma

And it looks awesome in movies.
