Kiwick-

Your description of the retrace line behavior (going away after warmup) exactly matches what happens with one or more bad electrolytic capacitors in the vertical circuits. If you or a friend has even basic electronic repair/soldering experience, you should be able to find and replace the bad ones. Likely, they have part numbers in the 500-599 range, based on other Sony monitors.
