Thanks for the links, Gaurnim. I did some calibration, Windows 7 has some semi-decent options, but it's still not acceptable for even field processing photos. I'll have to give that new color profile a try this weekend.

WDE.
You don't actually open an .icc file, you have to load it in the monitor properties. I don't have a Windows system handy, so this is from memory, but it should get you close:

Go to Display Properties/Settings (where you can change the resolution)/Advanced (little button on the bottom right, above the OK button) and there should be a tab named "Color" or something similar. In that tab will be a "Load" or "Install" button. Point it at that icc file.
