Whatis this on my screen

This is a little hard to explain, but on my LED screen for my 1530 there is a small white dot that is brighter than anything else on the screen. I tried cleaning it off but it looks like its being produced from the screen itself, what exactly is this? Also, will i be able to use my warranty on it and exchange it i guess?

Thanks

 

pls post a pic to help us solve your problem

 

its a messed up pixel you shouldnt worry about it that much i have those on my sorta new LG monitor

 

Most likely it's a stuck pixel, there are alot of programs to fix these.
Warranty for LCD panels is usually for 5 or more dead pixels.

 

Dont use those pixel fixing programs i did and it gave me 3 more stuck pixels and the one i was trying to fix was brighter it seemed

 

well thats good, now you have more stuck pixels you can negotiate a change under warranty

normally dell dosent make a fuss about it.

 

no not on my dell my LG desktop monitor

 

Ahmed,

Dell's warranty will cover that, call them and say your screen is defective, they should replace it with anew one.

cheers

 

HAY CARAMBA!! A living pixel!!

 

I have the same issue, its more like the whiter spot then just one whiter pixel.

 

If it occurs across the screen, it is sometimes due to some backlight bleed. Regardless, get a replacement since you can hold on to your current system until the new one arrives so you will be able to do a side by side comparison to make sure if its just a little backlight bleed or if there is definitely an issue.

 

White pixels are generally hot pixels; no amount of running a pixel "un-stucker" will help, it will just remain white.

Stuck pixels generally show as red, green or blue and are most prominent against a black background. They will either disappear on their own eventually, or you can try and get rid of them by flashing the surrounding area or gently applying pressure to them whilst turning the screen on and off.
