Default Get To Screen Driver Settings

I just purchased a Lenovo T500 laptop running Win XP Pro and need to get
the the screen settings. Not the standard Windows settings but to the
screen driver settings. Color adjustment, gamma, etc.

How do I get to that ?

Do I need to download something ?


I've always found the proprietary ATI and NVidia packages
have a panel for adjusting color/gamma.

Your T500 could contain just the Intel GMA4500 graphics,
or it could contain both a GMA4500 and an ATI 3650. WinXP has
some way of manually switching graphics in WinXP, followed by
a reboot.

And the GMA4500 does have an Intel panel. I've not seen that
before when looking for support. And there is an item
in it called "Color Correction".

The drivers that came with it, should be exposing all the
features. It's not like a home build, where you have to
gather the right drivers manually. As in a home build,
you'd go looking for a separate Intel package, a separate
ATI package, and so on. Your purchased machine
should already have some version of that software
installed.

Right-click the desktop, select "Properties".

That should open Display Properties.

Select the Settings tab.

Click Advanced.

A "branded" panel should now open.

Have a look in there for anything which launches further panels.
I don't know Intel stuff well enough to guess what
happens at this point.

If it's Intel branded, there are various generations
of panels shown here.

Just a guess,
