Yellow tint in windows picture viewer with SP2309W monitor

If I have these 2 monitors in a dual monitor configuration and drag picture from Dell screen to Samsung screen you can see yellow go away as it is dragged across.
* I need to see some pictures of this.

Here are 2 pictures and a youtube video as well.

In the pictures, the bark of the tree looks more vibrant on the Dell then the Samsung. The left side of the Dell is a better white then the samsung. Are they both connected via DVI? If yes, have you swapped the monitors to the other DVI port?

Thank you for your help on this. Both monitors are connected via DVI and I have swapped them back and forth. I have tried just one monitor at a time as well. I agree that the overall clarity and how vibrant the picture looks is much nicer on the Dell. It is mostly the yellow tint. I will post some better pictures of the issue when I get home from work this evening.

From the lab -
* Perform a monitor factory reset and re-check
* If that doesn’t work, switch the preset mode from Standard (default) to Customer (RGB) mode so that it will use the panel’s native color and re-check

Saw your video last night and received my monitor this morning so I was a little worried. Used the monitor all day before I noticed it. The image I noticed it on had it really bad, but I have `some` good news for you because I've managed to alleviate most of it. I don't know what your success has been with it

Originally I was using the colour profile provided with the monitor. What I found was that when I opened photoshop it gave me a message saying the colour profile is defective. If I chose to ignore the colour profile in use, photoshop reverts to sRGB IEC61966-2.1. When photoshop was using that the images came out normal.
In the following picture on the left you see photoshop using  sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and on the right you see my monitor displaying the same image but using the colour profile provided.
Evidently it can display an image correctly. 

Faulty Image

The problem is in part with windows 7. When you change the colour profiles, you see absolutely no difference. If you have an image open the colours won't change. If you close the image and open the image again, the colours won't change. You need to close it, then wait about 10 seconds, and then open it.
Using sRGB IEC61966-2.1 in the windows 7 colour management gave me the following image.

Correct Image

And photoshop stopped complaining that the colour space was bad. Originally I thought it was a fault with windows partly because I first observed the change after setting the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 colour profile as the system default but my testing has shown that that shoudln't make a difference. Just set it either globally or exclusively on that monitor to sRGB IEC61966-2.1, close the image - wait - and then reopen it, and it should be fine.

Incidentally when I used photoshop to set the colour profile to the one provided with the monitor I got an image which is more blue. Which is particularly strange since it when applied to the system we get this yellow tint. The worst thing I found is that while taking this picture, I'm starting to see what appears to be a little bit of yellow. Below is the image with the monitor's Dell provided colour profile applied on photoshop on the left with the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 image on the right

SP2409w vs  sRGB IEC61966-2.1

It looks to me like the colour profile provided is meant to stop the yellow but the way windows 7 reads the file is making it worse

That is awesome information. I have not had a lot of time to play with it lately. What are the exact settings you are using on the monitor? From the OSD.

Thanks

I don't know what colour profile I had it on in the last image. I thought I had broken it. I messed with it for a bit, then put just put it back and the two images match now. Its a bit difficult because I'm trying to compare on the same screen so I am interested to hear how it compares between your two screens
