WCS, like Windows XP, still does not load calibration curves from
monitor profiles. This one deserves a little background... After you
calibrate and profile your display, the profiling software saves the
graphics card's calibration curves inside the monitor profile so they
can be reloaded on reboot. The Mac OS has reloaded these curves
automatically since OS 8 but on Windows, a third-party utility is
required. This is open to conflicts as two different software
packages might fight over loading curves (LUT wars). Also, selecting
different display profiles in the displays control panel does not
load each profile's calibration curves... cumbersome at best. This is
an odd oversight as it is a simple function and one that really
should be performed by the OS.
