help ln40a650 vertical color streaks from images

can anyone please help on what is causing these streaks to appear across my screen. it barely started almost a week ago. they show up when there is something shiny, bright images, words like when you see a news ticker on the bottom. shows up even when watching any type of bluray or dvd, video games. plus the tv is not under warranty its almost 3 years since i bought it.
i have seen a video on youtube of someone with something similiar that they themselves fixed but was on a plasma. the culprit they say was the y-board upper,lower. any help would be greatly appreciated. i have included a link to a couple of pics i took of my screen.

nopal76,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having this issue with your TV.

I'm unable to provide a diagnosis based solely on a picture. My recommendation would be to contact the Samsung customer service center at 800-SAMSUNG to have a technician come out and inspect your unit.
