    Not sure how this happens. But this is my second replacement LCD from ASUS. Now it has some small dust particles behind the screen that create a rainbow effect if i change viewing angles. Its not too noticeable but its really annoying. Is there a way to remove it?

    I've experienced this on my Dell laptop. The only way to get to the dust particle is to remove the screen panel and take the top layer out very carefully. I'm not sure if all screens are made so you can take the top layer off but I actually managed to move the dust from the center of the screen to the bottom corner by tapping on the screen. It didn't bother me that much so I just left it there without dismantling the LCD panel.
