Pfft... I have a dead pixel on my monitor as well.<br><br>After a while, it don't botha you at all.<br><br>Make sure to note where it is however, it can play tricks on you in photoshop.<br><br>Other than that, the glow from the pixels around it hide it pretty well, especially in games.<br><br>Oh and yea, me=cheap when it comes to repairs. If I can't fix it myself, I'll learn to live with whatever is wrong (if it's not on warranty that is).<br>

It´s on warranty, but I´m not going to ask for a new one because I have 1 bad pixel... That would be insane. I thought it was a tft problem only too, but, bah, now I will need to learn to live with it. <br><br>A bad pixel and a deep scratch, bah, what a great monitor....

PS: the scratch was my fault. (something related with sand in a cleaning cloth)

Yeah, is that an LCD screen? A dead pixel is better than a stuck pixel. Like a blaring red one... I've got a dim blue one on my laptop display (15" 1024x768 ), but it's really not noticeable, especially with all these blue PM screens. :)<br><br>Dan East<br><br>Unintended smileys are not true representations of emotion: Last modification: Dan East - 06/27/01 at 20:35:12

Two cupcakes were in an oven. One turned to the other and said "Damn, it sure is hot in here" and the other one said "HOLY SHIT! A TALKING CUPCAKE!"
