Help with photoshop cs5.1 color profiles

[gsdpic]

I hope someone out there can help me with a color problem with photoshop CS5.1....

I recently upgraded from CS4 to CS5.1. The first few times I loaded CS5.1 it gave me an error about the monitor color profile being corrupt. I re-installed the color profile but still got that error. I eventually clicked the "don't show this warning again" button, though I do not recall now if I clicked on "use the profile anyway" or "ignore the profile".

But now I noticed an issue....all photos have a bit of a tan cast to them. The pictures look fine in bridge and in ACR, but when I open them in photoshop, they get the tan cast. I also cannot get a true white color to display. If I go into the "color picker" and click in the upper left corner to get 255,255,255, the color shown is a light tan, not white.

If I save the photos in jpeg and view them elsewhere, the tan cast is gone, so it is just the way that photoshop is displaying them.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for any help...

I should have mentioned this was PC/windows.

I went into the device manager and just uninstalled the monitor. After that I once again have white whites and no tan cast in the pictures. There must be something funky about the monitor color profile.

First, navigate to control panel and search for color management. Go to the color management.
Click on the box that says "use my settings for my device"
click add and add the SRBG colorspace
click on it and make it default.

Next in PS:
Click File>Edit>Color settings
under working profiles and Srgb make sure Srgb is selected.

under policies make sure all say use embeded.
