Maybe some kind of problem with your PSU? But if your screens flickering as well then I'd check your plug socket. Have you got more that one thing going into one socket? Whenever I turn my TV on which goes through the same socket as the monitor, then the screen flickers a bit and looks like it's missing a couple of horizontal lines

Sounds like a number of problems, number 1 sounds like its the PSU, (Power Supply Unit) and number 2 is either, your monitor tube about to go, so you will need a new monitor, or it could also be your graphics card, but to be honest it sounds more like your monitor.
Hope its of help.
