Hi,

I bought a Dell 20" widescreen monitor with a few dead pixels. Most of them are near the edge of the monitor, but one is in the very middle. It seems to be partially dead, though. It can display any color but green. For example, if I turn the entire screen white, the pixel will be a magenta color. When the entire screen is 255 G, the pixel is black. When it is 255 R or 255 B there is no problem

Is this a dead pixel or a stuck pixel? I have tried jscreenfix and massaging on it, all to no avail. Am I stuck with it? Please share your experiences with this sort of problem.

Thanks
 
It you just brought this, return it and get a refund ...

Your problem can be called "A dead subpixel", the green one, for that mater.

Having more than 2 dead pixels on a monitor is unacceptable nowadays.
