Help with color profiles

[pattern]

Ive had the new iMac for a week now. Yesterday I decided play around with the color profiles. I decided to go with adobe 1998 but I found it to bright so I checked out SuperCal and played around with that without actually applying any changes.

Now my colors seem less saturated (blues look purplish, greens are pale etc) even if I restore old profiles the colors still lack the saturation it had originally.

Any ideas how I can sort this out? Thanks!

If you want an accurate colour profile for your unique computer, you should invest in a colour profiling solution - such as this

I don't need accurate color. Right now ill just settle for factory default color. But any new profile i try looks off, it doesn't look the same as it did before.

haha, that thread is what got me changing profiles in the first place. im thinking about reinstalling OSX but hopefully I can figure out somethng else before I resort to that.

Could it possibly be hardware interference?
