Dead Pixels

[awelsh]

Well ive just noticed ive got 2 dead pixels towards the bottom of my screen.

Their next to each other and are on the start bar, ive moved things over them, poked them and they seem dead to me.

However is there some sort of website to do a test on the screen? also will it start getting worst over time?

Thanks

Try rubbing them quite firmly.

He said dead pixel not nipples :P

Best way to test for dead pixels is just a black image full-screen.

Have done that, did nothing.

Not that their annoying because their on the start bar and theres only two of them, but could it get worst?

worse..

And It could or it could not, How old is the screen? Dead pixel is normally for life luckily in a few cases you can... give them the kiss of life.

There is a program about somewhere which attempts to sort them out through the rapid changing of colours just over that pixel and the surrounding pixels. If i remember the name of it i'll post it. Good luck
