LCD screen is black with horizont lines when trying to take photo

I have a Sony DC-T1 camera that when it's in either the photo or video mode, the LCD screen will not view properly, it is a dark screen with flashing white horizontal lines, However, I am able to view pictures taken previously in that viewing mode, so the LCD screen works properly for this.
I was told by a camera shop that it's a problem with the circuit board and probably not worth repairing.
Any info with this problem and should I attempt to get it repaired?
