Hello Terence, Not an easy question. A few years ago I solved it by getting a desktop with a rather high-end graphics card, but even there, I could not find a simple direct anwer before installing it! This information (that you can assign a different profile to each display) is even more difficult to find for a laptop. Once you have access to the computer, it is easier. Here is a suggestion. In the Windows 7 Control panels, select Color Management. There you should see each peripheral and the associated ICC profile. Check if the profile association makes sense or if you can change it. The Spyder Pro should also be able to recognize each display and perform calibration on each.

This is a bit off-topic for colorsync but I'll ask the question anyway... :-)
I'm supporting a group of designers that have 2 and 3 displays hooked up to either laptops or desktops, all running Windows 7.
In a specific case, I have a designer running two 24" external displays, one is connected via VGA analog and the other display connected via HDMI. It's an IBM Thinkpad laptop with integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000 video card.
There is an obvious white point difference between the two displays which got me wondering whether dual external displays each with a unique display profile is even supported.
They are all using the Spyder Pro software and device for calibration and profiling.
I tried google searching this question but I didn't get anything definitive. The specs on the integrated graphics adapter claims to support 3 displays......but I don't know if that means it will support a unique display profile (and video LUT) for each display.
