Default LCD setup.

Does someone know where there's a guide to setting up your LCD monitors settings so that it feels comfortable? Ive tried playing around with the settings but lately it's been brutal on my eyes, I want to get it set up so my eyes dont hurt after a while.

For the color hue option theres three options, red, blue or user, currently I'm on user mode but what's the best?

Well, this is a hard thing to say, "Is comfortable for all." because everyones eyes are different.

Some of the people I work with yell at me when I change the resolution to 1280X1024 on a 17" LCD, "Common Computer"

They always change it back to 1024X768 (Which is a sin in my book)
As far as the other settings, every LCD is different. Each displays slightly different, so you must play around with it's settings until you find a happy medium. I spent a few days with my settings until I found something I liked.

I set both of those to 1280x1024 and the auto adjust was just fine for me.
