I have a lot of friends that have LCD monitors (I prefer CRT still) and most of them are complaining about stuck pixels and how they can repair a LCD monitor that has this type of problem. I will show you 3 simple ways that you can use to get rid of this problem without having to go to someone else and maybe pay that respective person. Stuck pixels usually appear because the liquid inside the LCD monitor is not spread properly, and so 1 or more pixels may remain stuck with one color or just stay black, it depends. But now lets get down to the explaining part. 1. I will start with the software method, since this is the one that most people prefer and it is also the easiest way to repair LCD monitor that has a stuck pixel. I have 2 software programs that can do this and they are free, just search on the internet and you will find plenty of them. 2. Trying to repair the problem using pressure. What you have to do is, start by turning off your LCD monitor and then find something like a pen that has a small rounded end but it is still thin, you must use this since if it is too sharp you may scratch your LCD. Then get a small damp cloth to protect your LCD monitor from scratching, fold the cloth in 2 and place it exactly over the stuck pixel and start adding a small amount of pressure on it with the pen, DO NOT press hard or you will risk to further damage your LCD monitor and also DO NOT add pressure anywhere else besides that pixel. Now, while adding pressure on it, turn on your LCD monitor, then remove the pen and the stuck pixel should be gone. 3. And the third method is fixing the stuck pixel by tapping. Start by putting a black background on your display, and I mean black and make sure you leave your lcd monitor turned on. Then get a pen or something thin but with a rounded end and start to gently tap the stuck pixel until it disappears,you should have a steady hand for this so you wont tap other pixels. You know that you’ve added enough pressure on your taps if the screen glows white around the pixel. It should fix it after a few taps. I hope this article helped you in some way, and you may repair your LCD monitor’s stuck pixels. As a final note I want to add that there is no guarantee that these methods will work, you try them at your own risk.

Help answer the question about LCD Monitor
Can a flatscreen LCD monitor with a low refresh rate cause blindness?My brother has been convinced (by a computer salesperson, surprise surprise) that his flatscreen LCD computer monitor is going to cause him to go blind because its a couple of years old and has a slower refresh rate. My husband and I think thats bunk and that the salesperson is trying to pull one over on him. Anyone know for sure?

Find out how much it would cost to fix it,
If it works out to less then what you are paying for the broken one,
Then yes its a good deal,
Make shur you know what the problem is,
It really all depends on what it works out to fix it and if it is fixable,
You dont want to buy it and end up finding out the problem is not fixable ,
or the price is more then you would have paied for a bran new one,
Hope this helps

There are some mean chemicals in screens, so watch out. The logical thing would be to try and fix it.

Improper refresh rate or resolution; bad connection

Best Buy Corporation has just recently started an electronic recycling program. Many items are recycled for free, and most others have a small fee attached for the service.
There are Best Buy stores in most areas, so I would check with them!

Oh man… there are a few things I would check:
First, if the cable is hooked up to a video card, make sure it's properly secured in it's expansion slot.
Second, make sure that all of your memory cards are hooked up correctly … once I accidentally put my memory chips in the slave slots and I got no video.
PS:
do you even see ANY video? ie do you see the bootup screen?
psps: once I had the same problem and I just removed the Video card and put it back in and it worked. don't ask me how…

a. was anything wrong with the power cord? if so try using a new one.
b. the shop you went too was very nice in that a 15 inch lcd monitor can be had from craigslist for about 10 dollars (a lot less than a repair bill)

not, stupid fuck

A backlight – no. It is integrated into the LCD panel. The cost of replacing a panel will be greater than a replacement monitor.
However, it is possible that your inverter card has gone. This is what provides power to the back light.
That could be worth fixing.

It sounds like you have a problem in the power or video section of the board, check for cold soldier joints, them check caps and resistors, this should solve your problems, good luck

Probably a simple fix. Why not have it repaired?

Really?!

viewsonic is the cheapest shit

All manufacturers require customer to ship item at there expense, if you wish to insure it may cost more…nonetheless i say if its full warranty, not limited which may not fix everything and youll need to pay labor etc…i think its worth sending in, you can then think of buying one for a upgrade and once you get this one back have it as a spare.

Im buying one that has a 25,000:1 contrast ratio. =)
