Where can I take my LCD monitor to be fixed?
Somehow, there was some weight put on it when I was moving and
it has killed some pixels on the RH side of the screen.

Is it worth trying to fix?
If anyone knows of a place in Suwon too, that would be helpful...

THanks

What is the damage like, exactly? Is it a few dead or stuck pixels floating around, or a large block of concentrated pixels? Do the pixels just not work, or is there a constant colored (or black or white) blob? If you just have a few stuck pixels, you can try one of those programs that cycles through lots of different colors to try to unstick them. If it is a large blob or blank spot, I think you are probably out of luck. In that case, it would most likely cost you more to repair the monitor than it would to buy a new one.

Aaah interesting! Well, the damage is about 1/5 of the screen and its a 'constant colored white blob'.

Thanks Tater

I don't think it's possible to have that kind of damage fixed.

Normally damage op has described means replacing the lcd itself and not worth the cost.
