On the bottom of the monitor, under the black sticker where the monitor picture is, and the "cable clamp" picture is, is where you will locate the four screws. Just lightly peel up, and towards the base will the screws.

That's strange, the pictures someone took showed that there was a bright band at the top, not dark. You may need to tilt it down a little.

how does costco run out of a product...

the 10 mm screws worked for me.. not sure it makes a diff. but thanks for your summary =)

The stand arrived today, but the sceptre 22" is still "in process" @ costco (ordered on 16th)............had nothing to do, so hooked up the stand with my old Dell 17'' oem lcd just for fun looks sweet

congratulations, hope you enjoy the big screen I know completely nothing more than anyone else, but I've heard about "Nokia Monitor Test" and DisplayX for testing monitors.

btw, can you tell me when you placed your order and when you got the shipping confirmation? thx!

Thanks! -AlexOne shareware program (made originally for laptop screens) is known as Dead Pixel Buddy. It will let you control your LCD and display screens in most any solid color so that dead or stuck pixels will show up. I have two stuck pixels on my new Sceptre. One is near the center, is very faint, and only shows up when the screen is black. I was only able to find it with this program. When any other colors but black are displayed, this stuck pixel turns those colors. I have another near the left edge which is more disfunctional. It is bright blue when darker screen colors are shown and red when they are lighter. I tried the program JScreenFix which "exercises" your display by changing every pixel randomly 60 times a second. Supposedly running it for 24 to 72 hours will unstick the stuck pixels. It hasn't worked for me, but may for others.

You can read about lots of good stuck pixel info and other tricks on this site: Fix-a-Stuck-Pixel Wiki. Just a general warning: don't poke, rub hard with a credit card, coins, or any of the other lame ideas that may damage areas around the bad pixel and could very well cause more bad pixels or screen damage. I did try pushing and rubbing the offending pixels with a pencil eraser through a protective piece of paper, but that didn't work either.

It's okay, my 1st Sceptre is going back to Costco as soon as the second one arrives.
