3 - Worked for me
my samsung syncmaster 223bw had a pixel stuck on blue in the top right corner, i tried all the software fixes and none worked.

then i tried the switch it on with your finger over the stuck pixel and it cleared, lasted for a week and came back, done it again and has now lasted for over 6months

i have a samsung 226bw and it gets stuck pixels all the time, luckily they are easily removed my sliding my finger gently over them a few times, but when i saw the first one i was so depressed as I didint know they could be removed by yourself.

I've got another way - stick with CRT. LCD is just a stopgap until SED or FED anyway.

CRT screens can have a much better picture than any LCD screen on the market right now, and they are much less expensive. The refresh rate on CRT's is also much faster.

I'm not agreeing with Kwertie though, LCD's are not a stopgag.
