I just got my new system yesterday, and the screen is mighty bright, with very bright and detailed colors, which seem fake and cartoonish...
It's a beautiful screen, just bright... The colors seem like they are highlighted, and not natural.
Who has the correct setting for this monitor?
I finally found where the hue and saturation setting are in the ATI ccc which nobody has been able to discover, including Dell who had already agreed to replace my screen because of the reds... gotta call them tomorrow to cancel. Am so happy with my screen now!
Anyway, I installed the latest ATI drivers from the AMD website and used the mobility modder to mod them so that they can be used correctly with the laptop vga card (although I'm sure that this option is in every version).
1) In the ccc switch to "Advanced" mode
2) At the top left where there's a menu titled "Graphics" with a small arrow next to it, choose "Desktops & Displays"
3) On the bottom left there should be a small picture of a laptop with the number "1" next to it. Right click on the picture of the laptop and choose "Configure"
4) It should now open a new screen. Just go to the middle tab "Avivo Color" and play around with the Hue and Saturation.
Here are my current settings:
Avivo Color:
Hue: -4
Saturation: 83
Desktop Properties (Also under the top left menu):
Set color correction for: All Channels
Gamma: 1.00
Brightness: -50
Contrast: 90
Please post only setting of your screen settings, just having problems finding the right colors.
View 3 Replies View RelatedJust wanted to share my personal opinion and experience in comparing the SXPS 16's RGBLED LCD to the newer, less expensive 15.6" Full HD (FHD) LED backlit 1080p display.
Having used the RGBLED for many months, I was never too happy with the "look" of the display. It looked too warm (maybe too yellowish?). Hard to put my finger on it, but in my work, I see LOTS of new desktop LCD monitors and LOTS of new notebooks, and the RGBLED did not have bright, white, whites. Comparing the RGBLED to my HP 24" LCD on my desktop, side-by-side, it was obvious the RGBLED was not pure white. Color corrections, etc., could make it better, but not to my satisfaction. Also, small text looked multi-colored, not black.
Having recently received a SXPS 16 with a 1080p Full HD LED backlit display, and moving my SSD drive to the new SXPS 16 so everything would be identical, I can say that the FHD display is PERFECT! Bright, white, whites (finally), and small text is sharp and black. I cannot really notice that it is 0.4" smaller, so that does not bother me.
For me, the cheaper FHD 1080p display is a better display than the more expensive RGBLED. I wanted to share my opinion for those that are wondering which they should order. If you already have an RGBLED, maybe you could comment on your experience with your RGBLED? But, I believe if you order the FHD display and save a bunch of $$$, you will be perfectly happy!
I recieved my studio 16 2 days back and so far its been treating me well. I got the deal in Canada for a whopping 1350 .
It has the standard features that are found on most dell studio xps 16's here on the forum. I wanted to get some advice from you guys. You see I went with the native WLED 1366X768p screen and I am not too happy with it. When I was customizing the system I didn't see a point in spending 300 additional bucks on the higher end screen. However now I am thinking of getting the 1090p resolution LCD. How has the experience been for people that have the RBGLED? Is there a way to get it at a lower price? and is there a way to get higher display resolution on this current screen? perhaps through a different GPU? I am just considering my options here since I really do like this laptop everything is fine. I guess I'm just looking for a more crisp resolution and the price is too high
When I go on the Dell website (both Canadian and American, although I am in Canada) and I customize one of these laptops with the rgbLED display, as soon as I switch the system colour to any other colour than the default black the rgbLED switches to a WLED, but the cost stays the same.
Is this a glitch, when it says WLED does it actually mean rgbLED? (or else why does it still cost the same) I was curious because I was definitely getting interested in the rgbLED, but I would much rather have the laptop in white.
It seems Dell does not have any RGBLED screens available for the XPS 16. What are the biggest advantage of the RGBLED instead of the other options Dell offers? Should I wait for the RGBLED? I'm not going to do any high-end photo or video editing, and I've heard that's one good reason to have that screen.
View 10 Replies View RelatedSo I recieved my laptop yesterday and opened it up today. I got everything set up and messed around, yet had to go out for a little while. I left it off power yet when I went to start it up the screen didn't come on! The side light is constantly white when plugged in, and an external monitor works perfectly fine. Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this issue? I there any button I could have pressed to cause this problem? Or is a call with dell my only answer?
*UPDATE* Issue resolved by buckZor: Shutdown gracefully, disconnect power. Remove battery. Wait 3 minutes. Plug battery back in & power, open and boot. Display light up?
Just curious if anyone else is having this problem/glitch when I unplug the laptop from AC power and the screen brightness is turned up about more than 1 tick the screen turns really red and dark but then brightens up a second later.
It seems odd that it turns mostly red and then back up to normal in a second
So I've been following the RGBLED calibration thread and don't think i've found my answer through all the ICC profiles and whatnot.
I've had a Studio XPS 1640 which i exchanged for a 1645. The 1640's screen was showing up as way too saturated with blue causing everything to have very cool overtones. I had that screen replaced only to see the same issue.
Upon receiving my new 1645 I've noticed the same thing. The screen (although slightly to a lesser extent) is still pushing way to cool a picture. None of the ICC profiles have helped other than to push too much green as a result of the change.
My question is should I consider this to be an issue and request a replacement screen. Is there anyone out there who doesn't have an over saturation of the RGB colors in their display? I've seen people complain about too much reds and some with too much green. Also the display going to 1 of the 3 colors entirely. (I have not experience this)
I'm comparing this to my Dell Dimension 2200 Monitor which although is not RGB LED i would assume color accuracy would be near to (although more vibrant) as my samsung 245BW LCD.
Things I've tried. (all of the ICC Profiles provided in the display thread, Windows 7 Color calibration and finally ATI's Color control system in the CCC.
I just bought a Dell Studio XPS 16 second hand, advertised with an RGBLED screen.
The laptop works great but I am very sceptical about this display, all the reviews harp on about how amazing it looks but I can't really see much of a difference between this screen and my WLED monitor.
I have been looking to buy a laptop for a while, and would prefer to go with an i7 model, hence I am looking at the studio 15 as Dell is the only company to have i7 laptops available in Australia. For some reason the options for inbuilt 3g and a 1600x900 screen are available on the model with the old processor but not with the i7.
The normal resolution screen will likely be too low so I am not going with that. Is 1080p on a 15" screen able to be used for word processing and general office tasks? This laptop will be an all in one - office use, multimedia and a music production laptop.
Should I go out of my way to find a 1080p 15" laptop to trial.
Can an owner of a Studio 1555 with a 1080p screen please tell me what other resolutions besides the native are available? (in windows settings and ati ccc)

Would it work? There's also a anti-glare privacy filter but it's about 79$ :S...
Considering a Dell studio 15 or xps 16. Which 1080p screen is the one to get?
The studio 15 has been so many revisions, but which one has the best contrast, brightness, and viewing angles?
Is the xps 16 screen going to be more reflective than true life b/c it's got the frameless plastic cover over it?
Does anyone actually have the specs for the screens? Is there a consensus?
as the title says im having bother getting the laptop to play a rip of 300 in 1080p the file format is mkv
i have all the usual codecs installed and i have tried it with wmp and vlc media cetner edition and cant seem to get it to work smoothly
I just had a few Dell Studio 1555 questions. Some were resolved from reading other threads, but others (which I'll ask here) were not.
1) The Dell Studio 1555 can be :
720p = 1280x720
900p = 1600x900
1080p = 1920x1080
Which do you recommend? Are there pictures available to see what the screen would look like? I'll be using this computer for light gaming, mostly schoolwork, and some movie watching.
2) What upgrades do you consider needed for the Dell? Like the Creative sound upgrade for $20 (CDN), or things like that .....
I hav a 3 months old Studio 1555.
T6400
4GB RAM
320 HDD
256 MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570
1366 x 768 LED screen.
When I had bought this laptop, 720p was the only screen available in my country but now they are providing 1080p too.
Dell has agreed to upgrade screen from 720p to 1080p.
Ironically the remote diagnostics technical guy himself was only 99% sure of success, not 100%.
When the screen was changed last week, the newer screen looked too white and faded, right from the system boot up. When Vista loaded, it first showed the older 1366 x 768 resolution then automatically adjusted to the native resolution 1920 x 1080.
however the screen looked same i.e. very white, faded, not so clear and colors almost washed out. Screen was checked twice but showed same result So i had to keep the original 720p only. Technician thought that the screen was faulty so sent it back .....
MasterShroom got me to change my mind from 900p to 700p for the Studio 1555 laptop I'm getting. Eventually my mind told me "900p! 900p!". So I made this thread.
Please post a screenshot (print+screen) of your desktop if you have both:
1. Dell Studio 1555, and
2. 720p, 900p, 1080p screen
Please state which screen it is (720, 900, or 1080) and if you want, let us know how you like it
Has anyone had their Studio 1747 with a 1080p screen crash while playing 1080p video full screen?
I tried playing a movie trailer full screen in 1080p on youtube and mine crashed.
I have a Studio with the ATI 3450 with the T5750 and I was wondering if it would be able to handle movies at that quality.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIf I have a 1080p/5.1 source on my laptop (BD, .mkv, etc.), will I be able to output that signal via the HDMI port?
I've read about some laptops only supporting HDMI video/not supporting HD resolution output/HDCP issues and just want to confirm that the Studio is capable of this.
I'm planning on buying a Dell Studio 15 and upgrade the standard 1280x800 screen to a 1920x1200 one(for games, videos etc).
My concern is, with this display setting, should I find the icons/texts etc be too small for everyday general use, what other resolutions setting are there to choose from?(the 1920 screen) Would 1440x900 be available or does it go straight down to 1280x800? Can any Dell owners confirm this please?
Likewise, if I upgrade the display to 1440x900, I assume 1280x800 will be available as well?
Can anyone tell me how to get back the factory settings..
