If I then do another full calibration with the target of 1.8 and do another CheckCal I find the gamma is around 2.5. If I do a full calibration with a target gamma of 2.2 and then do a CheckCal I find the gamma is 3.1 (or similar - it is not always the same value, but it is always around 3.0). This is the thing that I don't understand. Thank you for the explanation which is a big help. So even if you never applied adjustments to these tools, they will overwrite the Spyder correction profile with a flat line. Those adjustments are done via LUT of the video card.

Now video card drivers come usually with some tools that allow the user to adjust brightness, contrast and even color gradients. This part corrects the gamma of the primary colors (RGB). The second and bigger part will be flashed to the LUT (look up table) of your video card. This first and smaller part is the white point correction which is used by all your installed applications if they can. This profile will be handled in two parts. Spyder creates a global wide standardized ICC profile. Here is the latest exchange with Datacolor support (all messages dated today): Make and model of any Displays that are used to see the issue (see note2 below). LFP = Local Flat Panel (Laptop panel)ĮFP = External Flat Panel (Monitor you plug in)
strongly suspect that it is Intel HD Graphics that is interfering with the Datacolor profile. Currently igfx is enabled and Datacolor ran out of ideas. I did try disabling igfx in Autoruns but when I did that I could not load any profile generated by the Spyder5 and the display reverted to a default profile which I could not change. They got me to download Autoruns with which to disable startup programs. They asked me to disable anything that could interfere with the display, including Adobe Gamma (which has been disabled) and igfx. Please note that I have been in contact with Datacolor support.
