Fixing Stuck Pixels

right i was wondering is it safe to have an app running all night to try and fix a stuck pixel, becuase i have one and its really annoying, if it was in the corner then i wouldnt mind so much but its right near the centre.

so will leaving the laptop on all night fix this problem?
any good apps that could help fix the problem?

 

Hi.

try this website, it has a few free programs, have you tried tapping the area lightly with the rubber eraser end of a pencil.

Has the faulty pixel been their since you got your laptop or has just appeard, because if it just appeard, running pixel fixing software might cause more pixels to become faulty.

EDIT : this is my 1000 post

 

thanx i will hve a look at it. from what i have read rubbing it with the end of a pensil can course more dead / stuck pixels to appear

yes its been there since i got the laptop from RAMBO. i didnt know that, but ive run it a few times but not for very long (2 hours max) and no more pixels got stuck or died.

thanx for your help.

well done + rep for you

 

Yesterday, I had this 1cm line in the right corner of my lcd screen in different colours: blue, red, yellow, ... while the wallpaper was blue. I only had it on my wallpaper, not when using programmes or running a game. I then changed wallpapers and it was gone. Could these have been stuck pixels?

 

Hi.

It may have just been a graphical glitch! hopefully.

mine appears everywhere, on the word page its like a light blue / green kind of colour during STALKER it comes up red and you cant see it on a black background, thats why i have mine i dont really like the pic but it hinds the pixel but im reminded of it when ever i go into a app thathas lighter colours its so annoying

 

It should be safe; LCD displays don't get image burn-in the way the old CRTs used to (no phosphors to burn). Whether or not it'll fix the problem though, who can tell?
