http://s23.postimg.org/ame57je1n/001.jpg Has anyone ever seen this before or know what it is? In 10 years of PC gaming I have never seen this until now. I was playing Metro 2033 for the record and ALT-TAB & CTRL+ALT+DEL did nothing.

Looks like a monitor test pattern!
Has the system recovered?

Well yeah I did a forced shutdown since nothing happened at all whatever I did. I was also in the middle of the game actually playing and nothing else was running...

Also the sound was looping extremely fast resulting in a sort of buzzing sound. So it wasn't just the display that died.
