    So this is my second replacement lcd from asus. Now its been 2 weeks and I've just noticed that theres some dust behind the display that is actually somewhat more noticeable than a dead pixel. Any way i can clean this without damaging the screen or something?

    Simple answer is you can't clean it without having to take the screen apart. note that this is very risky and chances are you might end up damaging your screen. I tried the procedure twice and it was a complete failure.
    You're better off getting in touch with Asus and get them to replace the screen again :)
