Testing out my brother's F610, I noticed there's an entire column of dead space (about 75 pixels wide of screen space) that won't draw. I've tried this in Paintbrush, Paint.NET, Fireworks, and even random mouse-style navigation, and the dead zone is still there. What can I do?
I would also like to add that I updated the drivers and the dead zone still exists.I would also like to add that I updated the drivers and the dead zone still exists.

Hi Tasha, Unfortunately, repairs at the "pixel level" are not possible. The display is an "all or nothing" type of repair (I'm not talking about the back lights and support electronics - I'm *only* talking about the display screen). That means that the entire screen is replaced if there are to many dead pixels. (Most screens have dead pixels - manufacturers limit the number of dead pixels on a screen that can be assembled to a TV). If it the Quality Assurance people in the factory find a number of dead pixels that is less than a certain amount - it is "good" and ships. If it is more - it is scrapped.
Generally, your options are: live with it, replace the screen or buy a new TV.
There is no fix, it is a Pixel gone out in display panel, good chance it is just stuck and will right itself but sadly sometimes they dont and the only fix is to replace the entire display panel Manufactures warrant such defects different depending on amount of dead pixels on screen is considered faulty, ie 3 pixels grouped or 5 separate ones .
Check the site linked below, and see the screen shots of defective LCD TVs, Surf it with patience. This should be a panel fault I assumes. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/
If pixels are gone on all channels - Exchange it Can't fix it yourself unless you are tv technician It is quite common for few pixels to be dead but that is usualy not noticable
Dead pixels are shame from manufacturers. They all tolerate them (you need to have more than eight for returning). Only few manufacturers talk about free of dead-pixels. One possible solution is pressing the pixel (not so hard press) and than shutdown the screen. Sometimes it will recover frozen pixel, but if you press to much, it can make another one. If you have enough for return, it will not be so bad if you have guarantee. If you are lucky to not have dead pixel transistor, this can help. But if transistor is dead, you will not success with this technique. Good luck!
White pixels are STUCK pixels, not dead. Read the warranty beacuse at a certain number of stuck/dead pixels, the tv is repaired for free by the seller if is in warranty period.
I assume this is related to your LCD monitor.
I think you mean dead pixels. The LCD monitor has tiny pixel elements, one for each red, blue, green color and each one of these colored pixels are turnes on by a transistor. When a transistor fails then the colored pixel it controls does not light up. This is a dead pixel and it shows up as a tiny black dot.
If the screen displays a blue screen, a dead blue pixel will appear as a tiny black dot in the blue screen.
You normally would not notice a few dead pixels unless they are grouped together.
Most likely a bad connection along the sides of the screen causing a line of "dead" pixels. I have a similar problem with an old GPS reciever (several lines). You could attempt to repair but that would be risky unless you purchased a new working screen and replaed the entire screen (can find on ebay at times)
I would also like to add that I updated the drivers and the dead zone still exists.
