Can't you physically fine tune the extra monitor accordingly to your laptop's settings? Something like:
Current settings: Laptop: A - Monitor: B
Step 1: Laptop: X - Monitor: Y (assuming changing one setting fucks up the other)
Step 2: Fine tune Laptop's settings via video card's driver - Monitor: Some crap settings Z
Step 3: Fix Monitor's settings manually
Never really experienced this, but it sounds straightforward to fix?
