I may be the only one with the problem, since I did a lot of messing around to try and get color management working.The idea than is the color management software knows how a value of #123456 should appear on that monitor, relative to some reference color space. I might be the only one with the problem, but I think it's all down to nVidia's control panel and color management (which does not seem as powerful as Windows' color management, nor does it seem to read standard color profiles).

I have no doubt that this guide will not work for everyone, but the guide I found didn't do everything for me ( see here, thanks to whoever did that).
