    Hey everyone, I have a pixel that shows up green on any color except white (then it turns white). Is this stuck or dead? Also I tried flashing software for 6 hours with no success, also tried gently pushing on it to (never even went away for a second). What can I do?

    Hi,

    is the display/tv still under the 2 week return policy ? If so return for an exchange.

    No, tv bought used (paid 500 for Viewsonic 42" 1080P LCD 2000:1)

    Is this tuck or dead? Should I keep it on there longer?

    Hi,

    I'd say stuck (might as well be dead to you). If it is possible, just live with it ( or use as a gaming display)

    The only other real option is to buy anothwer tv.
