Dead Pixel Cure
 

Re: Dead Pixel Cure
 

I had this problem when my mon was new and I cured it by switching of the power, leaving it for 5 minutes and powering it back up again....the pesky thing disapeared for good ....might be worth a try?

They say u can cure it by "rubbing" it, but this is not recommended and could damage it further.

Well as long as the errr...rash doesn't spread..can't you live with it? :erm:

Red - Ouch mate...

My PSP has two dead pixels.. being as they are white, i don't really notice it..

Many warranties for monitors have a dead-pixel part, try checking that to see if you can get a refund/switch them...

They normally require about 8 or so for the warrenty to kick in. ( although that may have changed!)

I would try rubbing it gently!! ;)

No they don't, one dead pixel is acceptable under most standards for TFTs. Think about the screens themselves, one native 1024x768 has 786432 pixels. Seeing as colour is a combination of red, green and blue then we need 2359296 transistors per monitor. Now think of the size of the pixels and the size each transistor needs to be.

If ONE of these is faulty then you will get a dead pixel. Difficult eh?

Have a look at this link www.psp-vault.com/Article168.psp might be worth a try.
