I recently bought IBM 370c thinkpad with active TFT matrix. As I finally got appropriate adapter, it seems that the computer is in full working order - but there is something that annoys me.
Near the center of the screen there is a stuck red pixel. It's visible on black and green background, on some backgrounds it gets grey, and on white it's simply white. As I work with DOS, it's visible at all times. I tried some rubbing, etc, but so far to no avail. I still hope there is something that can be done, as the pixel is not dead, but simply stuck.
I have read some manuals - but I would like to learn about your experiences, if you have any. What method do you think would help?
There are those methods with hi-frequency flashing various RGB colors. Is there any DOS program that could work? If not, I could write some simple code in Basic, probably.
