Dart thrown at LCD pc monitor
I assume it punctured the active surface as a small hole shows permanently
white . I would have expected a line and or row or a few such lines to be non-funtioning, at least one side of the hole, why not? |

Set the background color to white and you'll see less of the white dot. -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |

I'd guess it only took out a bit of the front polarizer. -- sam | Sci.Electronics.Repair FAQ: http://www.repairfaq.org/ Repair | Main Table of Contents: http://www.repairfaq.org/REPAIR/ +Lasers | Sam's Laser FAQ: http://www.repairfaq.org/sam/lasersam.htm | Mirror Sites: http://www.repairfaq.org/REPAIR/F_mirror.html Important: Anything sent to the email address in the message header above is ignored unless my full name AND either lasers or electronics is included in the subject line.

Polarizor film at the right angle does bring back to normal, whether a
little circle of it over the hole is more objectionable than permanent hite - debatable. |

Set the background color to white and you'll see less of the white dot. Have you done this? Seems like a very tiny "drop" of something grey or black would be better. Maybe that epoxee that comes out grey, either PC-70 or the one in tubes which is thinnebut if you get a small enough bit, maybe it won't run. The second is famous but I can't remember the name. II've used the windshield repair kit and the tube that the stuff is pumped through is at least 3mm. Won't that cover lots of lcds? |
