Spyder3express calibration help..

Postby surenj on Thu Sep 16, 2010 1:46 pm

I have using this setup for a few months now.

In the last two months, I have had this error message and I am guessing it's not good...

So far I have tried to find that file and disable the read-only state. No go.

Any thing else I could try???

Thanks for your help!

My spyder came with a little utility called ProfileChooser.

If you have it, try running that. It allows you to pick what profile to use. You can also see what profiles DataColor sees.

Mine doesn't seem to have that utility though... I have a feeling that it may only for spyder2 users Thanks Ozeecho...

I've got Profile Chooser on a Spyder3 Pro.

Probably easiest to just delete all the profiles and recalibrate.

Good to hear - but don't keep us all in suspense - what was the solution? (This might help if anybody else has the problem).

Cheers
