1 inch lines on top and bottom of screen

hows the picture? is it 3d looking? do you have the convergence option in the setup menu

2 types. If wooden top rail of screen surround: remove end screws of top rail by removing caps over screws on upper front sides. Remove the two screws. Remove top wooden screen bezel piece. Now pull up and out screens. If sceen surround is plastic one-piece all-around: remove speaker grill board. Remove screws along lower front of screen bezel. Pull bottom of screen bezel out a 1/2 inch. Lift up on screen bezel to remove entire screen assembly.

These are the dimensions of the TV itself (including the bottom piece)
The height of the TV is 37.2 inches tall
the width is 49.6 inches wide
the depth is 17.4 inches deep.
the weight of the TV is 132.5 pounds (just thought you would want the weight as well if you are considering purchasing a stand)
I hope this helps and good luck!

Filter capacitors (more than 1) in the main power supply

You have a problem with convergence and all you may need to do is replace a fuse. Look up convergence for your tv model and hopefully you will get an answer as to where the fuse is located and how to replace it. Very common for RCA tv's

I have the same KDF60XS955 sony and have the same problem. I called sony customer support and was told there was a recall on the optical block for this tv. But the recall ended in Dec. of 2008. I was upset that they did not call or send out a notice to me. They should of had my information because I had a different issue that they sent someone out to fix a few years ago. They said it was an expensive fix, like over 1000 dollars. Instead of fixing it they offered me a deal on a smaller tv, a 52 inch sony. I could buy that one at a discount which is about 1100 dollars. I told them that I thought that was the worst deal I have ever heard of. Why would I spend about 4000 dollars for a tv 4 years ago only to be told that I could buy a smaller one today for 1100 dollars more. I said if I bought that 52 inch tv today, what would happen 4 years from today, am I going to be offered an even smaller one for more money again? I thought I was buying a top of the line tv back then, I only wished it would have lasted longer than this. Not happy!

do the lines go from top to bottom, and are they about 1 inch apart? or do they move diagonally across the screen?

I have a green line on the left side of my laptop, can you tell me what is that?

replace the dg board
