I've seen this before and it was due to a fried graphics card which had to be replaced. -__-

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It looks like this because the low level system font set is hardcoded in the VGA BIOS nowadays. You could try flashing the card's BIOS, but if it's a broken VRAM chip, chances are you have to get a replacement.

Try with another graphics card if you can before buying a new one, though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
