I have a 19" LG LCD monitor that is starting to have very small black dots on the screen. So far I have two on different sides of the screen. What are these? Let me know if you need some more info.

Splendid
u might have some dead pixels on your monitor

r they very small ?


Aye, they are probably dead pixels.

LCDs get dead pixels after a while.

Check your warranty / replacement policy to see how many dead pixels it has to get before you can get a replacement.

I believe most vendors will replace it after 8 dead pixels.

Also,

Don't EVER point at things on your screen with a pen or pencil....

Do you have children?

Actually it is easy to manually damage most LCDs... Some come with a hard protective screen coating like Sonys and the Apple cinemas...
