Need Help Synchronizing Color on Dual LCDs
So I have two identical Dell E228WFP 22" LCDs connected to a Dell laptop dock. The dock only has 1 VGA and 1 DVI-D Dual Link output. Even at restored factory settings on both monitors with identical color temps, the screen using the VGA input appears much more blue.
If there's a methodical way to open some sort of calibration image on both screens and fiddle with the individual RGB temps, I'm open to suggestions.
On the other hand, in the near future I will have a 2nd machine connected to the unused input on each screen, in which case the calibrations would work against me, making one monitor appear MUCH more blue, right?
So in lieu of color calibration, could I use one of these adapters to use a DVI cable with my VGA output? If so, what are the chances the colors would look the same as those coming from the actual DVI output?

THE BAD: Huey PRO ($130) is needed to calibrate a computer with multiple displays. The standard Huey ($80) will only work on a single display per computer.
The difference between the Standard and the Pro is purely software, they use the same device.
