Dead Pixel Tester 3.00
Dead Pixel Tester Screenshot
Dead Pixel Tester - TFT screens have thousands of pixels, on a 1024x768 monitor, there are three cells for each pixel - one each for red, green, and blue - which amounts to nearly 2.4 million cells (1024x768x 3 = 2,359,296). There's only a slim chance that all of these will be perfect; more likely, some will be stuck on (creating a "bright" defect) or off (resulting in a "dark" defect). Simply select a color then closely inspect your monitor in each of the primary colours checking for pixels that are not operating as expected. Stuck pixels (always on) are easier to noticed then pixels that are not on due to their size (normally under .5mm).

Adware (!!!) No thanks.

Nice program, but there are better. It's not freeware, but ad sponsored. I don't think it goes online to get the adds, they are built in to the program but that doesn't make it freeware. Just my 2 cents until I get a cut of bail out money :)

UDPixel is far more useful. It can actually fix the *stuck* pixels as well as detect them. Dead ones are dead and can't be saved.

Um yeah, I already have one of these. It's called Microsoft Paint. Seriously, you just need something to display the three solid colors on your screen and look for stuck or dead pixels. Usually you don't even need that, I mean if you have to go to such lengths to even find them why bother. Mostly I don't like adware though, especially useless adware.

"It is an excellent tool" It's feature-rich and very user-friendly. All possible pixel flaws can be explored. I did not find any shortcomings with this product. I very much liked this product for its efficiency and operational convenience.

A useful program to have in your toolbox. I find NO adware in this standalone executable. Neither does Softpedia or CNET.
