This the symptom of failing T-CON board which is part of the LCD panel assembly, the LCD panel will have to be replaced. http://s807.photobucket.com/albums/yy352/budm/LCD%20panel/
Jyjazz, If all connections have been checked and are still good (not loose) then check the units "date of manufacture" on rear of unit!!! It could be that it is 6 to 8 years old and has had a long life compared to all other brands that never made it past 4 to 5 years of age. Yes, you will need to make decision based on good approximation of the total "on" hours this unit has seen during it's lifetime and the last known GOOD screen images that were displayed. Do a little bit of reading of my fixya profile and those of "budmrtn" and "buddymc" for more info on getting monitor repaired or trading in for new. Bye for now. 12fixlouie

It will get worst with more lines/bands.
Not worth it, the whole LCD will have to be replaced.
