The D60 works as SLRs have worked for half a century, providing a viewfinder through which you frame and compose your picture. The screen is for menus, settings, and reviewing pictures you've already taken. The LiveView feature which lets you use it as a point&shoot camera was introduced with the D300, introduced a year after the D60.
Sorry if that wasn't the answer you wanted to see, but that's the way this camera works.
The pictures are blurry due to camera shake, which in itself is caused by the slow shutter speed. Try using shake reduction setting. To increase the shutter speed, raise the ISO rating.
A few basic checks
Are you in full auto mode or some other shooting mode? Try different modes and see if any work.
Does the shutter speed seem slow - like you can hear it cl - ick. When photographers want a blurry effect, slowing down the shutter is often used. Change mode or set a faster shutter speed.
If none of these lead you anywhere, the imaging system that scans the imaging chip may be faulty. that's not a home repair.
The D60 works as SLRs have worked for half a century, showing the image in the viewfinder until you press the shutter. The LiveView feature which shows the image on the LCD screen is a rather recent development on DSLRs, unlike on point&shoot cameras. The D60 does not have this capability, which Nikon introduced with the D3 and D300.
Sorry if this wasn't the answer you wanted to see, but there it is.
If you erased the card in the computer, the camera doesn't recognize what you did and only shows the remaining space. To regain the full use of the card, you need to format the card in the camera.
Do you have the sharpening turned up too high? Why not try a camera reset? Go into the menu and scroll to "reset" and follow the on-screen instructions.
In your manual you will find how to change the display format (picture only, histogram, etc.). The time it's taking to display your image "might" be that your memory card is getting quite full and you're shooting large images. I shoot a D80 and it uses an SD card. Make sure you but a fast memory card if your camera does not buffer the inage before writing it to your memory card.
