I've heard quite a few times that if it's just a "stuck" pixel, you can display pure black then white, black then white, etc. and in some cases it will just pop back into life.

It's quite hit or miss though I gather. Never had this issue myself.

This is going to sound crazy, but my Toshiba laptop had a stuck (red) pixel, and I just poked at it pretty hard with my finger (LCDs arent that fragile, give it a whack) and its been fine since. :)
