LCD-Related Symptoms

Important

The TFT LCD for the notebook computer contains

over 2,359,296 thin-film transistors (TFTs). A small

number of missing, discolored, or lighted dots (on all

the time) is characteristic of TFT LCD technology, but

excessive pixel problems can cause viewing concerns.

The LCD should be replaced if the number of missing,

discolored, or lighted dots in any background is 21 or

more.
