So what I did was research color calibration using windows 7 or 8.1.
click here I followed the directions and did not make any changes to my laptop.
Next I googled, grass and then selected, images and found many grasses. My laptop is connected to my TV in duplicate mode.
The grasses on my TV have too much yellow but on the laptop they look like real grasses.
My next step is to figure out how to calibrate my big screen sony tv.
thanks for everyone's input
