well i leave my computer to go out for dinner, i come back and i have my windows screen saver on, but what else is there???? 350+ RED DEAD PIXELS! man i cant catch a damn break, this week is just not mine, now i gotta go get a new monitor.

oh also are dead pixels supposed to move or am just finding more cuz as the windows logo moves, more pop up, you don't think it had anything to do with the dead pixel buddy i ran a couple of times last week was it?
 
At least you have an LCD to bitch about having dead pixels for, and what more, a computer to hook said LCD up to, and an internet connection to get said computer online with.

At least you arn't a 7 year old girl in Kuala Lumpor who had to make said electronic gadgets.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but dead pixels stay dead right? You arn't just going to get 350+ showing up at once out of the blue right?

New videocard time buddy.

That doesn't sound like a monitor problem to me.
Sounds like bad drivers, or maybe a video card overheating.
Did you restart the thing?
 
no my friend is online 5 states north of me, also i hooked up a diff rig , and no "holiday lights" so now i guess i gotta RMA the vid card to XFX or newegg? (i bought it from newegg)
