Wierd lines at the top of TV image
The TV in our living room has an odd problem. There are lines that come down about 3" from the top of the screen. You can still see the image behind these lines, but what goes beyond the physical border of the tv seems to roll back down into the screen in these lines. It's a really annoying problem. Everything else with the TV seems just fine. This happens on every channel across every input.
My dad swears this started after we got the Wii (he thinks the "Sensor Bar" started the problem) and even though it's not used and the bar was removed, the problem remains. I've attached a couple pictures but it doesn't really help much since I can't attach a small video...
BTW this is a standard 4:3 27" CRT

The tube is simply getting old. After awhile, the electron gun can become less accurate. Time to get an LCD.
Anyway the TV is only a couple years old, but it was a cheap one. Oh well, maybe the next one will be better.
Also I agree with CB, there is no way the Wii sensor bar did that.
Still more than the TV would cost new at Wal-mart, however.
We've been through all that. It's there on every channel and across every input. It's prolly not even worth the cost to repair. It was cheap to begin with, it'd prolly be more than it's worth.
Now, what did all that have to do GR81' s problem? This gives your dad the excuse to buy a very nice flat screen TV that's digital ready!
