The display has pixels that are always dark or too 
bright
This condition is normal and inherent in the TFT 
technology used in active-matrix LCD screens. 
Gateway’s inspection standards keep these to a 
minimum. If you feel these pixels are 
unacceptably numerous or dense on your display, 
contact Gateway Customer Care to identify 
whether a repair or replacement is justified 
based on the number of pixels affected.
The display is blank
