No, the 'stuck' pixel is not in the middle of the screen
And yes, it's clear the device still has power. It switches to a black screen for about 5 seconds, and then the calibration / profiling begins. The program flashes colors on screen, that are read by a sensor connected to the computer. The feedback from this sensor causes the program to adjust the monitor, so it has the correct brightness and color settings for editing pictures.
The colors are displayed in a square in the middle of the screen, and the 'stuck' pixel is just to the right of the square, about half a centimeter higher than the bottom corner.
I think it's weird. Maybe I'll pull the old version from my backup and re-install it on the desktop and laptop and see if there's a difference on the laptop compared to the newest version. It could also be the nVidia/Intel Optimus setup in the notebook that causes weird things to happen. Sometimes, Firefox doesn't redraw its window correctly. Changing the window size slightly fixes this problem. The same version of Firefox on the old desktop doesn't have this problem.
