Sony Flatscreen tv problems?

Today I plugged an hdmi cable from my xbox to our flatscreen so my kids could play a game,while they were playing halfway up the screen these wavy lines showed up.The lines blur almost half of the screen.SO I unplugged the cable,but the blurry lines remain.I checked all the connections but they still didn't go away.HAs anyone had this problem and if so did it clear up or did you have to get rid of the tv?

    LCD TV screens are an advancement from older tube monitors that use far less power, and the displays are easier to manipulate because of the flexibility of the crystals. If you're seeing lines over parts of your screen that prevent you from seeing the image, this is most often a result of faulty internal hardware, loose cables or a broken screen.

    It´s possible that the problem may be due to a damage in the t-con board, it

    acts as a bridge between the LCD panel itself and the main board.

    If there's anything wrong with the t-con board, it could produce a faulty display and colored lines in the screen.

    The board itself is most often found in the top center of the back of the TV, often covered with an aluminum panel. Replacing this part can be a challenge, so if you don't feel comfortable working on your TV, consult your TV's manufacturer for support and possible repairs.

    Unless you're experienced with working on similar devices, let a qualified repairmen look at it. Even if you're comfortable taking it apart, make sure that doing so won't void any warranties. anyway, if you want to have an idea of what is going on and what it would cost to repair, here you are a link of a technician service www.tvrepairjacksonvillefl.com
