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:
v XGA: 8 or more bright dots, 8 or more dark dots, or a total of 9 or more
bright and dark dots.
v SXGA+: 11 or more bright dots, 13 or more dark dots, or a total of 16 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.)
