[QUOTE="hark, post: 296163, member: 13196"] That is always a possibility. This monitor was 4 years old in December although for 2 of those years, it wasn't used (this is a second computer that is seldom, if ever, turned on). Just this past week I got my laptop running, but that monitor/screen is a little smaller than this one. This room has one window which faces south so although there is light, it isn't overly bright. What I've noticed is when the room is brighter, my monitor winds up being brighter/lighter after it is calibrated, but when it isn't as bright (like on an overcast day), then the calibration comes out darker. Maybe I will look into getting some type of daylight light bulb to light the room without the light being directly on the monitor. Perhaps that will allow the calibration to achieve a somewhat brighter overall appearance. [/QUOTE]
