pixel stuck at green color

i came home after leaving my PC running for maybe 2 hrs,, and soon noticed a GREEN pixel almost in the middel of my screen

needless to say... i was very tweeked,,, but then i recalled a thread i read in the HARDEWARE & UPGRADE forum... and after about 3 seconds of lightly massaging the area aroung the stuck pixel,, it came back to life

should i be concerned about this,, and is this often a sign of more nad pixels to come or just statisics at work??

please reply with your experiences

Look there, be carefull, my compaq has one blue one stuck, tried
everything and it didn't help. I was carefull and didn't
scratch the screen or cause any other pixel problems.

Been three years, never got worse or better.

Did have to fix a broken wire in LCD cable, wow them are small wires !

thanks for the info... sorry your pixel never got better

I was about to post a similar link to solve Lcd dead pixels, but jc55´s is pretty complete.

As far as I know, one dead pixel does not mean others start dying too, so if you can´t solve it, don´t go mad about it (but I totally understand you if you do).

Kind regards and good luck fixing it!!!

 

already fixed by massaaging it
i just wonderd if i should be worried about more of them now that i've had one

 

You´re right, I´ve read it well but forgot it while writing the message (5 minutes searching for my link, that´s how long my brain´s RAM last ).

Glad to hear that!!!

For what I´ve read there´s no need to worry about "new" dead pixels, is more probable that the one which is "reborned" would die again.

Regards!!!

 

thanks for the replies though... info is always a good thing

tomorrow AM i'm removing my HDD and trying to boot off a CD to see if the prob is with the HDD
