Monitor Calibration — Windows With Adobe Gamma

How to calculate your Windows-platform monitor using Adobe Photoshop's Gamma Control Panel.

Unfortunately the Windows operating system does not allow for consumer-level monitor calibration. However, if you have Adobe Photoshop installed, you can calibrate your monitor using the Adobe Gamma control panel.

  • On the Start menu, choose Settings > Control Panel

  • Launch the Adobe Gamma control panel

  • Choose the Step-by-Step Wizard which will walk you through the calibration process. Expect this to take a few minutes.
