    - There is no warranty certificate as far as I know. The warranty is tied to the machine, not the owner.
    - I think Lenovo will fix the screen only if there are anywhere from 3 to 5 stuck pixels. It is in the warranty terms.
    - If the pixel is stuck there is software out there that can help fix it(check out this one for example). If that fails then some people lightly massage the screen(where the stuck pixel is) with a microfiber cloth while the machine is off, and then turn on the machine as you continue to massage it, and that works sometimes.
