What do the dots on the far right side of the display indicate (one is solid black the other is a circle, one on top of the other)?

The circle indicates that Daylight Savings time is ON. The black dot is the battery indicator. When it flashes, the battery is getting weak and needs to be plugged in to recharge it. This would be if it is unplugged for extended periods of time.

There are copper dots on the back of the panel which are marked with a + for Positive and - for negative. The labels are hard to see in low light... you can solder your leads directly to the copper dots.

Upon reading some of the reviews one guy stated: " The updated units "second gen" have a purple dot on the back, whereas the older ones have no dot. That's how you can see if yours are of the old design." I assume he means a puple dot on the back of the actual unit. This makes me feel very uneasy as mine does not have the purple dot... gah, heres to hoping.

You hit the lower left button on the back (there are 4 in a square pattern). When you hit it once, a light goes on on the display in the lower right corner. This indicator is just a dot. When you hit the alarm button, it cycles through 3 states... ON, once only, and off. When the device is in the ON state, the light is a solid dot. When it is in the once only state, the light blinks. When it is off, the indicator light is off. Hope this helps you. I love mine

If you can, you should check the mounting holes where the screws goes that hold the screen on the sides match up with your current display. Also check that the location of display connector on the back of the screen is in the same place as your screen. Hope this helps. Best regards.

Above and to the right of the display board (on the main board), look for a black capacitor (black round disk). I've had that blow twice already, and just replacing that fixes the system.

Both sides have the dot pattern. It looks to me like it is printed twice, not a bleed through.

Black on one side, white lettering on the other, your choice on which side shows

One more thing, always pull out your old screen and check which side the pin connector is on, ie bottom left or bottom right.Yours should be bottom left but this pic is showing bottom right...When you order the screen it should give the location in the description.

Sounds like a defective lcd display. The one I received worked right away. U may want to exchange it. Sorry about the tools. They weren't that great. Luckily I had my own.

It is an IPS display. I took a photo of the sticker on my laptop and it says "IPS touch panel". See photo here: http://postimg.org/image/3kkvgiikz/

Get the one with the black text on white display. The black display is difficult to read.

The display is clear, it may just be a defect in yours or something with the settings.

The drawing of the crosshairs in the pix on this particular item that's being commented on is not reflecting the actual look of the crosshairs. The crosshairs go all the way in, mind you and then where the red dot is, there is actually a black dot when the red dot is turned off

yeah sounds like a dead pixel. problem is if it's just 1 you're SOL. I had this issue with my sony lcd and Customer Support said that they'll warranty it for 15 or more dead pixels. Luckily my friend run a PC Richard so I exchanged it. If you look close and its the shape of a rectangle on a grid then it's a dead pixel.

I have two LCD's and one of them does this.I returned to Asus twice and I still have the issue.It may be related to dual display.It is not the operating system or video card.
