Just to be sure, try an external monitor, but it sounds like the LCD panel is sick.

Wow. I have yet to see something to that degree ever. Even more odd is the fact that they are both perfectly circular in shape...

I would love to know how the hell that happened as well.

Honestly, I don't think anyone here will be able to give you a fix for that. The screen is obviously damaged and will have to be replaced.

Assuming you still have warranty left on your laptop, I'd phone up Toshiba Support and explain the problem to them.

I recently had my LCD replaced on my M105 (minor dead pixel/dirt issue) and the turn around time was just a week and they paid for everything including 2 Day shipping.

Good luck and keep us posted on what happens.

Actually, I had it fixed directly through Toshiba on their dime. The nearest service center was too far away from me to do it that way.

If you look at his blog or link, it is a heck of a lot more than "a couple of dead pixels"

Heh, I think he got confused and thought I was the OP. He was talking about my situation.
