Well you definately could have fried them. As a last resort/hope you could pull them apart and check to see if there is an internal fuse or if you just blew a cap off of the board. This is why they invented FUSES!

damn that sounds pretty serious... I think you need to do some ass whoopin cause its a goner.

Well i'm not sure but auex could be right one the fuse issues you might be able to replace it or see if the LCD company can replace it since you still have warrenty on it (do you?) well I say warrenty first before you strip it.
