thanks for the reply FabianN.
well the first time it happend was that that screen with the messed up image stayed there. it didn't go away, even after i rebooted the computer 3 times, but when the computer was off the LCD showed the "No Signal" display which meant the LCD's fine. then i switched to the DVI connections on the LCD and the graphic card.
my LCD and graphic card are working fine right now, but i just want to know if either will break because of what i said above.
here's some visuals:

it looks like all 3 mixed into one, the colour in number 3 and the lines of 1 & 2.
