Weird pixel line on monitor.


Hey guys, I've been having a little problem lately. Well can't really call it ''lately'' anymore, since it's been happing for 6 months now. A vertical line of cyan pixels would appear and upon shaking the monitor it'd dissapear somehow, just to return a few more times before finally disappearing until i'd leave the monitor off for a few hours, then it'd start again. It was annoying but since it'd wear off after like half an hour i thought it was fine.

But now the problem has grown. The line has been more persistant the last few weeks, appearing for longer time and harder to get rid of, and now it's just ALWAYS there and I can't get it to disappear. Also the color of the pixels used to always be cyan, but now it's either purple, blue or green depending on the background. I don't really know whether this is a line of dead, stuck or just broken pixels. I've tried stuck pixel removal applets like Jscreenfix but it didn't work.

My monitor is a 19'' Philips 90S5CS LCD screen. Hope you can help me out!

If your monitor is still in warranty I'd suggest to go for it. If not this is looks bad . They are not stuck or broken pixels because their color change, but rather something from the electronics of the monitor.
