    Hello there! probably from the title you can understand that i have a weird problem. On my Hp pavilion dv6 laptops screen i have a big moving dead pixel. I use the definition "Zombie" because i can push my finger around it and it moves! It gives no light at all, completely black and its in the size of my thumb. idk why but i can move it and when i move it the pixels it used to be on works normally. I first saw some little pieces of black around the black edges of the screen. I didnt care at all because it was out of sight. Then yesterday, it started growing and eventually becoming the size of my thumb. And i can actuly see it growing. It grows in the shape of circles and vertical lines, never horizontal. I first tought of a stuck pixel, but i can move it! By applying pressure on its sides it seems to be able to get pushed around. But then it grows back there. Does anyone know what my problem is? Thank you. Sincerely: Kuzey...
