Display worked great with Spyder all sorted now - thank you for the suggestion (y)

Thanks that looks like they got past the point I did - I never got that far with the datacolour software that looks like its with the DisplayCal software which at the moment wont download - Correction its working now :banana: Well the download works just got to install and try it now I'll...

I have just been to the Displaycal site but the download wont work. I did use it last night but it would not see the spyder either. The spyder icon actually shows in the tray and the blue light sometimes comes on so seems to be alive

Anyone use a Spyder 3 pro with windows 10. I have followed the instructions about not plugging in until software is installed etc but in the software I cannot get past the screen where it says I need to activate it. I press next and nothing happens. Does it work with windows 10 ?? Out of...

OK think it should work now - removed formatting I had it italic to make the quote more obvious

Changed font colour - thank you for the quick and honest reply.... Looks like I will be on the lookout for a newer model then

I saw a nearly new still in the box mint condition Spyder 2 Pro for sale on ebay for £20 and after reading a few reviews thought I would buy it but now after I go to download the software (I don't have a CD Drive) I get this message from Datacolor Spyder2PRO Software Posted by Raphael Graf...

Yeah my wife gets them at a good price - why are the Dell computers so much better than the MSI and HP I mentioned ?

Yes I read the IPS has a lot better viewing angles. I at first thought the MSI was the one to go for as it has 16 GB Ram and apparently excellent colour range of 99% sRGB and I think 85 adobe. Then I read it has a TN screen and they are a no-no for photo editing. So I thought OK then its the...

Thanks yeah I thought that but read the colour accuracy is excellent on the msi better than the hp apparently

I have a laptop at the moment and I know some don't like laptops for photo editing but I have used one for years with no problem. My wife (nurse) has a chance of a laptop with her work and the best choices I can see on there are below but I cannot decide between them. They are both powerful...

Thanks

Hmm.. might be of interest for unused kit rather than sell it
