So I can't guess what you are using but may have to upgrade what you have.
I have a laptop, but I connect an external monitor to it and set the external monitor as the primary which then blacks out the laptop screen. If I color calibrate the external monitor (not using specific software, just doing it via calibration in the computer), is it going to reset every time I disconnect it from the laptop, or will it "remember" its calibration settings every time I plug it in and set it to primary?
