LCD-related symptoms

Important

The TFT LCD for the notebook computer contains many thin-film transistors (TFTs). The presence of a small number of dots that are missing, discolored, or always lighted 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:

vXGA: 8 or more bright dots, 8 or more dark dots, or a total of 9 or more bright and dark dots.

Note: A bright dot means a pixel is always on (white or color.) A dark dot means a pixel is always off (black color.)
