Ive calibrated the screen using Huey (and now using Dispcal GUI) like ive done on other laptops and desktops but seen to have a major problem getting the laptop to use or load the profile.

Its showing under the ICC profile as default in Color Management and ive also added it under Advanced > System defaults.
The "Use Windows display calibration" box is ticked in the system defaults tab.

Despite that im not convinced the profile is actually working, still looks too warm/yellow to my eye (and compared to my main desktop screen).

Ive got a laptop with "Nvidia Optimus" on it meaning its got two video devices - an intel for low graphics stuff and an nvidia that only kicks in for graphic intensive things and im not convinced this isn't messing things up. I can only see the intel listed under devices in colour management but obviously LR/PS etc are using the other one.

Has anyone got an optimus enabled laptop to properly calibrate and load a profile? Also, can anyone point me to a way of testing to see if a profile has or hasnt loaded and is in use?
