In my case, on my HP Omen 32 gaming monitor, the overall appearance to the eye is warmer and less bright, with the added comfort of meeting the sRGB standard, which is good for web work. Future updates will be provided by the OEM and/or Windows Update. The Spyder 5 Pro doesn't work magic, and it can't make things look better than the monitor can physically handle, but it can make a big difference. In my case, the resulting profile was 100-percent sRGB compliant and 80 percent Adobe RGB. You can save this and set a reminder to do it again on a monthly basis, and you can also look at sample images with or without the profile applied. When you come out on the other side, the software will have generated a new calibration profile for your monitor. In this instance, the procedure paused mid-way through for a brightness adjustment, but if that's not on your list you'll see a variety of colors flash up while readings are taken.
GETTING THE DATACOLOR SPYDER 3 PRO TO WORK WITH WINDOWS 10 SERIAL NUMBER
Use the Serial Number included in your SpyderX package to activate your software. NOTE It is recommended that you place the mouse pointer in the gray area of the screen during the calibration. This will automatically start your Warranty. Position the Datacolor Spyder3 over the square on the screen, and click Accept to start the calibration. After installation is complete, plug in Spyder and launch the software to begin the activation and registration process. Once you've clicked through and attached the colorimeter where instructed, it's time to sit back for a few and let it do its work. Download and install the SpyderX software using the links below.
It'll recommend settings for Gamma, color temperature and brightness - which is influenced by the room light, should you measure it - or you can choose your own custom options.
