How To Fix Windows Photo Gallery Yellow Tint and Photoshop Monitor Profile Problem?

Do you notice that when you view a picture in Windows Photo Gallery on a Windows Vista PC, Photo Gallery software renders image and the background of image in yellow tint? Is your Photoshop CS3 starts up with a dialog box that said the monitor profile appears to be defective?

Well, I don’t have this problem while I was using the 15″ Samsung CRT monitor. Even my Dell Latitude D410 that powered by Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 could shows the white color perfectly, not tinted with yellow or orange alike color.

(I was gifted a copy of Vista Ultimate SP1 license during the “Heroes Happen Here” event. Then it caused me to get a 2GB RAM upgrade for running Vista Ultimate without fancy Aero interface :-(

However, I just notice that unwanted glitch happens in my own Vista machine, where Windows Photo Gallery exactly renders the white background in yellow color, right after replacing the CRT with LG Flatron LCD monitor!

Photoshop CS3 starts up with a warning dialog box, said that the monitor profile appears to be defective and advice to rerun the monitor calibration software.Next, I also found that the Photoshop CS3 starts up with a warning dialog box, said that the monitor profile “LG L1753S” appears to be defective, please rerun your monitor calibration software!

OMG! What happen to this out-of-the-box LG Flatron LCD monitor?

How to fix the Windows Vista Color System related problem?

After google a while for the subject, I found this Microsoft Article ID 939395, which I’ve referred to fix these two problems, i.e. Photoshop warning my LG monitor profile appears to be defective and Windows Photo Gallery in yellow tint background:

  1. Click Vista Orb, type Color Management in the Start Search text box, locate and click the “Color Management” shortcut that appears in “Programs” listing.
     
  2. In the Color Management dialog box, tick the check box that labelled with “Use my setting for this device”
     
  3. In the “Profiles associated with this device” section, remove all the color profiles by selecting to highlight them and click Remove button.
     
  4. Now, close the Color Management dialog box and restart Windows Vista.

If the problems are still not resolved, you may try to remove all the color profiles and click the Add button to install a Vista-bundled color profile sRGB IEC61966-2.1, as suggested by MDL.

If you’re going to change a LCD monitor for Vista-based computer, remember where to find the solution if the Vista Color System related problems happen to you :-p
