This is weird, but when I use software to try to locate this white pixel, it disappears when I make the software display a completely black image on the screen.
here's a picture I took cause it doesn't show in a screenshot.
It's right above malwarebytes in the left corner. the white dot.

That actually looks like a small cluster of them. The Sager warranty will cover it if there are 5 which it looks like, but I cant be sure by looking at that picture.

I'd contact your reseller to look into getting a RMA set up for the screen.

Man, that's the last thing I want to do, anyone know any way to fix it without resorting to RMA?

White/Black typically indicate a dead pixel which cant be fixed. If they are a color then then are stuck and can sometimes be unstuck. You can of course try those methods heres a page to look at some ideas How to Fix a Stuck Pixel on an LCD Monitor: 5 methods

Looks like one stuck pixel to me. I'd paint it over with black nail polish.
j/k

If it is stuck and not dead (unlikely), use something with a dull point and poke at it a few times. I get a blue stuck pixel from time to time (dumb thing doesn't want to die!) and I just poke it with my 3DS stylus and it'll go away for 12 hours to a week lol.

I tried that, but nothing happens. It also doesn't help that its right in the corner and almost impossible to poke without really ing the screen up. I got a ipad stylus thats spongy and it didn't do anything. Man I hate doing RMAs..
Stuck/Dead pixel?
