Yes I think the virtual monitor is a bit special.
I cannot go into the properties of the monitor, neither see it in the device
manager. I tried to install a fake monitor, but I couldnt see that option in
the "add/remove devices" in the control panel.
Result of the command :
C:\Argyll_V1.0.1\bin>dispcal -D
MonitorEnumProc() called with hMonitor = 0x10001
MonitorEnumProc() set initial monitor info: 0,0 1916,1049 name
'\\.\DISPLAY1'
get_displays about to get monitor information for 0
EnumDisplayDevices failed on '\\.\DISPLAY1' Mon = 0
dispcal: Error - Unable to open the default display
