Yes, a third-party startup program (what you might refer to as an 'init' in

Prove it! has a startup utility on the Mac, I expected it would on
the pc too - the [embedded only] manual is not much help here. Oh
well - run on log in is not too bad.

I did try the Win display properties dialogue - but remember
though - I wrote earlier - that since the file [profile] does not
show up anywhere on the disc and it cannot be found in a search I
cannot either rename [add icm] or select it.
It's only visible under Photoshop <Assign profile> and in Prove it!
itself <system profile>.
I suspect it's being saved with a different <filename> and that
both Prove it! and PS can see the internal name.

I've had a hard time with 98 and 2000, surprisingly I found NT4
quite easy, just edit the register and that's it.
Is there a <system profile> slot in 2000 somewhere?
thanks again
