Thank you for your reply!
I also suspected grafics card (and espacially Catalyst Control Center) and
the Dell Monitor settings as possible error cause.

This is a good advice. There are to many "CMS-features" in the CCC
which could cause trouble and interfere/override other CMS.
To avoid possible problems with the CCC I tested two things:
1.) deinstalled CCC (I think even X-Rite advices this in their FAQ) ->
but the problem still exists (even without CCC).
2.) I used Mac OSX 10.8 on the same machine (-> no CCC installed!) ->
but the problem still exists (even under Mac OSC without CCC).
At the momement it seems CCC is not the problem (as it is not installed
anymore).

Very interessing information.

The custom mode seems to be better in the u2711 compared to the u2410
"This (e.g. Test of u2711) is a good result when you consider the
U2410 had some big problems adjusting and correcting colour accuracy in the
'custom color' preset" ... see
http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/dell_u2711.htm
tftcentral says: "Thankfully the custom color profile on the U2711
works fine."
On the u2711 seems to be to best option for wide gamut.
But in my case I only get sRGB coverage in a custom mode (e.g. wide gamut
mode) regardless of the OS (Win 7 and MAC OSX 10.8 have the same probleme on
the same machine)...
Thanks to everone helping me!
