Althouigh I haven't gotten this far with installation of r3 I've been following this gamma problem on the targa+. It seems to me that one would be advised to not adjust the monitor to get the gamma to work. The monitor is your primary measuring device and as such should be calibrated using a standard NTSC color bar from a standard source and using blue gun set the color/tint/brightness/ and contrast for perfect bars. The bars should be from a standard source like a signal generator or camera, or, in a pinch recorded from broadcast TV. Once the monitor is calibrated leave those controls alone! Then go in and attempt to use the gamma adjusting setup in r3. You see, if you're constantly adjusting your monitor to match what ever the targa+/3DSr3 is putting out you won't be calibrating anything. It's like trying to get your car to go faster so in tinkering with the speedometer you're able to accomplish this, right? <g>
