I've done a factory reset and looked at all the settings and cannot figure out how this happened.
Could be a result of any of the accidents they warn you about in the manual. Heat, cold, direct sunlight, dropping, water or magnetic feild. does it take a picture?

There is a service advisory out for Nikon E5700.
t has come to our attention that in a
limited number of COOLPIX 3100, 3500, 4500, 5000, 5400, 5700 and SQ
digital cameras, an electronic component may, in some instances, fail
affecting your camera's performance and/or operability.
While only a limited number of COOLPIX 3100, 3500, 4500, 5000, 5400,
5700 and SQ digital cameras are affected by this advisory, if your
camera presents symptoms that can include (1) images with a strong
color tint, (2) images that are totally black and/or (3) images with
visible defects, Nikon will, upon confirmation that the problem is associated to this Service Advisory, service your camera free of charge.

SOURCE: Use LCD instead of view finder in Nikon D40
That's because the Nikon D40x does not have Live View. Up until a couple of years ago, no DSLR's had live preview, due to the design of a DSLR over a point and shoot, as it has a pentamirror arrangement that effectivly deflects the light path to the viewfinder and only to the sensor when the internal mirror is raised. Early live preview models from Olympus had the world's first Live View system by flipping the mirror so that the picture preview could be seen on the rear monitor. Most manufacturers now incorporate Live View into most of their models but most Nikon consumer models do not as yet, apart from the newly relesed D90. The D40 and D40x are two year old designs and therefore do not have the more "modern" specs of say the Olympus E520 or Canon EOS450D. Most photographers trading up from a compact to a DSLR are surprised when they cannot use the monitor in the same way. However for most aspects of DSLR photography Live View is not something that is used all the time, low down shots, macro perhaps being the most convenient use, but for general photography there is no substitute for framing through the viewfinder, that's what we've been used to doing for over half a century! Besides as pointed out previously a DSLR is often too heavy to hand hold at arms length especially with a long lens.
SOURCE: how to reset to the factory settings?
turn camera on, turn upper dial to setup, have the display on, use the up/down arrows on the back of the camera to click to RESET ALL, use the side arrow to to click to the reset box, either NO or RESET.
SOURCE: Nikon D60 use of Display to take pictures rather than view finder
The Nikon D60 does not have "live view" capability, so you'll need to use the viewfinder to frame you shots. If you need "live view" capability, consider purchasing the D80 or D90 instead with offer the feature...
SOURCE: nikon d90 stops working after drop on
you have see first visible damage. However camera should be dropped. D90 is not magnesium case.
