Control Panel > Colour Management

Readme's and Help files in Adobe applications search for "colour profiles" and "colour gamut" if you have any installed, they can set weird colour profiles if installed: normally cutting reds towards orange. Adobe also used to put a gamma correction control in control panel but it seems to be absent now with Photoshop CS4.

but as yrag said if it looks OK to you it is OK

I believe it is the frontal part of the brain that handles color responce. 

(I thought Adobe used American English, i.e. "color" not "colour".  I'd believe, if windows changed based on region But am a little surprised that Adobe might.)

Yup, Adobe's finally cottoned on to the huge travesty of omitting the U... I hear the next round of updates will include replacing Z's with S's so that colourised is back to how it should be.

Try Lagom's gamma calibration tests. (IIRC, there's also some for CRTs)

send me a print screen & I'll tell you.....

Well for the regular user you can try calibration tests, me myself im putting my trust to the manufacutrers sRGB calibration, because you need special hardware to measure it otherwise(photo pros use this kinda stuff, and really expensive monitors).

about sRGB http://www.w3.org/Graphics/Color/sRGB.html

Hardware-based calibration utilizes light monitoring and measurement devices along with software to achieve the more exacting results needed for high-end work.

There are different lcd panels that are better in showing more true colors like sIPS for more info read this http://www.pchardwarehelp.com/guides/lcd-panel-types.php

Also use a ICC profile

If you really want to keep your monitors calibrated I would suggest a hardware calibrator as well.  I just recently picked up the Pantone Huey and it automatically calibrates the monitors.

It's fairly inexpensive, and it works very well.  I would definitely recommend it to anyone who does graphics, etc.

Ausvet, thank you, also for the link!!!   Zyxpsilon, I will check that out, also your links voidcore, sydney thank you!!! ID, looks like a good deal!!!  landisaurus, Starkers....I prefer colour rather than color...it looks prettier!!!

And it's correct.

Nice that's quite inexpensive!

He means corrouct. 

Because Z just wasn't used infrequently enough.

Was going to say correctamundo... but then I realised that was another Americanism coined by Fonzie.

Because you're from Auztralia....
