I think you should start over with the Spyder. I have calibrated many Windows driven monitors. The first thing to do is turn off all monitor control software, or better said perhaps is to put the monitor in it’s native state. If you can determine how to do that then running SpyderPro or equivalent with the Spyder Calibrator you will get to where you want to go. The controls on the monitor should allow you to choose which state you want. If you can put it in native state with no internal calibration that would be ideal. The calibration will be supplied by the Spyder calibration and the ICC profile created will be the one to point the system to as the monitor profile. You can not have two profiles working at once. It is important to set the parameters as: brightness between 100 and 140 depending on how bright your office is. The software will measure the brightness and while accessing the monitor controls you adjust the brightness down until you get a very close confirmation.
