    So I noticed liek a month ago tat the right half of my LCD monitor displayed a little darker. Then I turned on the TV today and that half of the screen was full of green pixels! They sorta look like stuck pixels but thy are constantly blinking. If I put a video or something they change color and work depending on what colors the video is showing but otherwisethey're just green dots. i also connected my ps3 and saw the same results. Any help?

    You can sometimes run a program that flashes through many many colours, very quickly, to solve a problem such as yours. Although, I must say, they rarely work (worth a shot, though, right?)

    Roughly one half of the number of pixels, or just straight up the left or right side of the screen?

    Sounds pretty bad, maybe even broken, I would call up the company and see if it`s still covered under warranty.

    That sounds like a serious problem. As Bucketdeth said, it's probably best to give the manufacturer a call.
