    So in photoshop my greys are a brownish color instead unless I uninstall my moniter drivers. Is there another way to fix it? I looked it up and people said something about your cololr profiles but I had no clue how to do that.

    Hi

    I would uninstall your monitor drivers and use the default ones that come with Windows as the ones off the makers can cause this and colour profiles would need to be gained from your monitor maker and many dont supply them and you'd need to get a hardware colour calibration tool like a Spider, if you are a Pro Photoshop user then this is best way, but if for home user just loose the monitor driver.

    If you have a Samsung monitor and the driver CD that came with the monitor then the MagicTune CD has an app called LCDGamma101.exe on it that may help to give you an ICC Colour Profile.


    I had same issue with Samsung LCD driver, made whites look yellow, and to be honest the default Windows driver is fine.

    Which Windows version you using?
