I have a monoprice display the showed a vertical red line last week. Good news is the display is still under warranty for four more days. Bad news is the line disappeared. How do I get it to show up again so I get a picture of the error for them?

Click to expand...
press on the top/bottom bezel around where it was showing up, its usually a fault in one of the ribbons that runs across the panel.
 
Take a screenshot of your desktop, use something to make a one pixel red line going through it vertically, and display it fullscreen.
 
peachy....been several days and it hasn't come back. As a last resort, I tried the line thing, but the line is actually thicker than the one it actually had.

Nothing like wanting your display to break.
 
Screen cap your desktop as a .png and upload it here I can make a single pixel red line on it.
 
well, seeing as it still hasn't resurfaced...it went through the window picture on the left side.

Here's another one with the line going through some icons to make it stand out more.

For the record I blew it up 300 percent, put down three dark red pixels to represent failed green and blue lines then put a single bright red pixel down the middle, then re-sized it to normal with LoHalo scaling, which sorta blends the dark and light red stripes together to imitate a failed row of pixels. I could have done some other steps to make it even more convincing but you're just gonna take a photo with your cellphone, right? A failed row of pixels won't show up in a screenshot, so don't send them this, take a photo of it.
 
Gimp. Oh and another thing, that wasn't native resolution, was it? If you send me a native one I'll redo it.
