How to check LCD in Vista without any third party software?

Does Vista come with any software like Nokia Monitor Test?

Check for? manufacturer? If so then obtain the FRU # for your machine via lenovo's Parts Lookup page and do a search on that Service part number.

AFAIK the Nokia Monitor Test tests for dead pixels and some other functions like proper monitor setup.

An alternative would be the ct' monitor test located here (you will need java runtime) http://www.heise.de/ct/ctscreen/. Vista by itself doesn't have any prog to test your monitor.
