The colors on your monitor must correspond with the colors of the final image. The image on the screen after any color manipulation you have made must give you a good idea of the final result, without needing to make a color proof.
Your monitor is an RGB-device, which means that the colors on your monitor will be built up from red, green and blue. If you insist on a true exposure of the colors on your monitor, you have to establish a correct grey- and color balance. To achieve this balance, you must calibrate your monitor.
Calibration can be done by using the Adobe Gamma, or any other, calibration program. It is important, however, to always use the same calibration program. The use of two different calibration programs can lead to incorrect settings.
An excellent guide to monitor calibration using the Adobe Gamma control panel can be found
here.
