Can anyone recall the warranty terms of Dell WA2209s? I bought mine from OcUK around 2 years ago and have developed a horizontal band of stuck pixels about a quarter of the way across the screen from the LHS. From other forums, it seems it's not an isolated issue:
"We lived happily since then, but recently, an ugly yellow vertical line of non-functional blue sub-pixels have scarred this beauty, so it's time to claim my warranty."
Checked the graphics card, updated the driver, swapped cables etc and nothing changes. On unplugging the DVI cable the stuck pixels remain on, so pretty sure it's the monitor itself.
Interestingly, the fault is common but intermittent, with the pixels only stuck for about 80% of the time. 20% of the time the monitor is fine and no blue/yellow band (depending what it's displaying).
I was quite willing to overlook the fact the blue light on the on/off button stopped working a year or so ago, but am much more keen to get the panel issue resolved if at all possible?
