Points: 1.84 Donate | | | Dust Behind Screen..
At first they looked like lit dead pixels..but when i turned off the screen, they were still there. Warranties done, can't exchange it..and its going to cost me 172 bucks CAD to get it fixed. Im really thinking about opening the fucking thing and using one of those cans of compressed air to get rid of everyting, then putting the faceplate back on. I just dont know how dust and shit got back in there to begin with, i keep it in the playgear case at all times..im so pissed.. and they're noticeable too its not like i can tsee them.. |

Points: 1.84 Donate | | | im a bit of a perfectionist, my eye just picks out the dust and fine scratches instantly like a sore thumb, thats something i cant control,, when playing socom, i just see the frickin dot, and itpisses me off, you're right tho, i guess i can just live with it, maybe itll eventually fall off, its just dust stuck right? if i heat the screen up and cool it down repeatedly maybe the dust will fall...or the screen will crack whichever one happens first. |
