Stuck pixels (24" iMac)

[Flyinace2000]

I was just installing windows and during the boot screen i noticed a red stuck pixel, then a green! All told i have 4 stuck pixels.

At least you have plenty spare pixels that aren't stuck. Just use them instead.





...Or lightly rub the stuck pixels to coax them back to life. Use a lint-free cloth or your underpants.

I have never had that actually work, but i will give it a shot

that "pixel killer" video actually worked for me with my old powerbook. I did it for a while then turned off the laptop and when I powered it back up, boom, stuck red pixel was gone! it came back once and a while but a power down was all it need to get 'unstuck'

Yeah, try playing ITASOR's movie behind them. Rapid colour changing can sometimes unstick them.
