XPero Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 (edited) Hi all. My girlfriend has a problem with her tft screen. When scrolling pages with images (for example in deviantart) or editing an image with Photoshop, strange little spots (pink and green) appear in the screen. I've tried to change the refresh rate, but the problem is still there. I've updated her nvidia geforce drivers also, but no fix for that. Do you know what is the reason for that? any solution? ThanksXPero Edited July 5, 2005 by XPero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomizer Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 (edited) i wouldn't worry about it. heck, some people pay good money to see pink and green spots ok... are the spots in the images only, outside, or both?what OS?how large are the spots? (dead pixals perhaps?) Edited July 5, 2005 by atomizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Those would be dead/stuck pixels: a manufacturing defect. Depending on how many there are you could try for a warranty replacement. Each manufacturer has a different threshold of the number you must see before authorising a return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atomizer Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 couple things to try...a different monitoromega drivera different video card, if you have onei've not seen anything like that, though i have had major problems that were due to drives and installing a newer driver will not necessarily cure the problem. you could also try installing an older driver (older than the the last one you used). how long has she had the problem? try to remember when/what may have caused it.
