How do I disable my Adobe Gamma??

[kundalini]

My Spyder2express monitor calibration was delivered yesterday and in the instructions it calls to disable Adobe Gamma. This is my work computer as well, so I'd rather disable than remove...just in case. I can find it, just can't figure out how to disable.

Thanks

In Windows XP and 2000:

Move the shortcut out of the Startup folder when you want to disable it, then restart. Move it back in and restart when you want to enable it. If you would like a little program to do it automatically let me know.

Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\Adobe Gamma Loader.exe

It may not be in the All Users folder, but it probably is.

Here is Adobe's version: link

Best,

You can also go to run and type "msconfig", and then on the startup tab you'll see a list of all services that run on startup. Uncheck Adobe Gamma Loader and it'll ask you to restart. You can always reverse the steps to re-enable it.

Thanks Helen and Matt. I ran the "msconfig" option. Works like a charm!
