DIY: RGB LED Display
When you connect an LED monitor to your desktop computer, you may notice that the colors do not appear as accurately as you would like. Windows contains a convenient tool, Windows Color Management, that allows you to calibrate the red, green and blue color settings, along with your LED monitor's brightness and contrast settings. Before performing this function, make sure that your monitor's cable is securely fastened to your computer. Loose cables can cause display problems.
