I just noticed something strange on my display. It seems like I have a dead pixel, but it exists in front of the rest of the pixels. I did a quick test to determine this. I put the crosshair in paint exactly on the pixel I believe to be dead, then moved my head. The dead pixel "moved" out from under the crosshair, in the same direction I moved my head, as if it existed in front of the rest of the pixels on my monitor. Is this normal? I just noticed it today and I highly doubt it's been there for more than a few days. Is there some sort of fix?
I'm wondering if I should try to invoke me warranty. I have the Acer XB270HU, I'm not about to let it slide on an $800 monitor. Not sure what Acer's warranty says, but it may only come into play if 3 or more pixels are dead.
Before you say it, no, it's not dirt of any kind. I wiped at it with several cloths and it doesn't feel like there is any kind of debris on the screen.
