Research direction

Start by locating the Power Display utility and its existing display-control entry points. Check whether Windows exposes monitor RGB drive controls through the APIs already used by the utility. Done means the interface provides independent Red, Green, and Blue sliders that adjust monitor colour balance and intensity.
