But certain things seem very strange on their face. Perhaps I am misinterpreting something, but wouldn't an initial native brightness of about 3.1 cd/m^2 would mean the screen looked pitched black? Also, if `power' means the output as a power of the input, then a power of over 3000 would be preposterous. As I said, the experts may be able to tell you what you did wrong, but the readings seem to my minimally educated eye as being way out of any plausible range. > > Any help is greatly appreciated, I am really trying to not have to > install window xp to get an ICC file for my monitor. >
