ATI/AMD cards will emulate sRGB when the "Use Extended Display Identification Data" option is selected under "Color Temperature Control" It seems to do a better job than the sRGB preset of my Dell 2408wfp. Not surprisingly it uses the primaries, white point and gamma specified in the monitors EDID.

I now get a profile with wide gamut as expected!
Hi, that's good to hear, but rather unexpected. The puzzles are: * where MSWin is getting the display information from to emulate sRGB ?* under what circumstances is it color management being turned on by default in DC's ?
* why can't I see such an effect on my test system ?This <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd372199%28v=vs.85%29.aspx> hints that it may be possible, but it's not clear what causes and output profile
to be assumed. Graeme Gill.
