This may be a stupid question, but i'm totally lost and frustrated here, and nobody i've talked to seems to have a solution. I did a search and came up with a couple of posts dealing with similar problems, but none of them seem to have a real solution.

I just switched from photoshop 6.0 to CS2, and i'm using Vista and a Samsung SyncMaster216 lcd monitor. The display shows colors well enough for anything i do, and every other program seems to work fine, as did PS6.0.

Now however, everything i open, and every new canvas has a yellowish tint. I suspect it has something to do with the color managing and profiles, and in messing with some settings, i've discovered that if i set the RGB working space profile to the "Samsung Natural Pro Color 1.0" or whatever (the monitor color settings), i can operate normally in RGB mode, but grayscale, CMYK and everything else still has that yellowish tinge.

I tried running the Adobe Gamma utility even though i've heard it doesn't work well with LCDs, but that only managed to make things worse by adding ugly tints to everything on the monitor. And i've tried changing settings in the vista color management control panel. So far nothing has really worked, i just get various degrees of awful.

Does anyone have any idea how i would go about dealing with this situation? Am i missing something obvious and simple? Or am i just totally out of luck?
