Line of dead pixels on new monitor

    I've just received this monitor, plugged it in and powered it up. It's bloody lovely, apart from a yellow vertical line of pixels about 10cm from the left (takes up the full height of the screen)
    Before I apply for an RMA, is there anything I can try doing, or is it just a lost cause?:o

    Oh yeah, it's the same regardless of me using the DVI (pc) or VGA (xbox) inputs, so is definitely a fault with my graphics card

    You should contact Komplett or the manufacturers, most probably the manufacturers. In my experience monitor manufacturers allow somewhere between 0-10 dead pixels and will replace the monitor.

    If it's the same in the bios, or it is visible when no pc is attached to it, then you'll be sending it back for repair / replacement.

    Not the kind of answers I wanted, but thanks nonetheless...
    Guess I'll just have to bite the bullet and organise the RMA then:(
