I have a BenQ RL2455HM that I got for Christmas and last night I realized it has a stuck pixel. The pixel is blue and it only really visible on a completely black background if I look really hard. I've tried pressing the screen, I've tried UDpixel I've tried changing resolutions/refresh rates, turned off the screen for 8 hours. I may still have a warranty on it, but I'd MUCH rather fix it myself, as I use it for work. As I said, the pixel is blue and is ONLY one pixel, I'd take a picture, but it wouldn't be visible even with a magnifying glass and full zoom. Please help!

it generally isn't 'fixable' or even warranty unless you have a special dead pixel warranty. Normally, 6 or more is the norm.

It is a burnt out pixel. Either see if you can RMA it or find your warranty for it. Other than that you have to buy a new monitor or deal with it.
I'm 99% sure that it is burn out, but updating your video card drivers wouldn't hurt.

If it's dead you can use this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GwrHzjgFtw . Leave it only for 10-20 minutes. If that doesn't work then you will have to send it back or deal with it. I used to have a dead pixel that went away over time.
