    Stuck Pixel


    I have had a stuck pixel on my brand new laptop for months now and I finally cant take it. I can always find it right away and it bothers me, my problem is its stuck in red and from what I read it has a chance to be unstuck with a program like jscreen but my problem is its up on my laptop where my url bar is so therefor the program doesnt reach it. Any ideas?

    Dead pixels are usually black. No fix for these.
    Stuck are usually "stuck" on a color. So there may be a good chance of fixing it.

    I had a monitor a while back with a stuck pixel but I never had any luck getting it working again. its worth a try.

    Have a look at this video that explains a bit about alternate different methods you can try. (May come in handy if the software method fails)
    YouTube - #91 - Question/Answer: Fixing LCD Dead/Stuck Pixels
    Although I would take his advice and try the both software versions first.

    AS far as the program you are attempting, make your browser Fullscreen, then try pressing F11. See if that may help.

    every laptop manufacturer has a "dead pixel policy". i dont know if it also applies to stuck pixels. if your computer is still under warranty, i would check with them.
