OK, I switched the resolution on my monitor from 800 X 600 and immediatly my screen went nuts. Its all screwed up now and I can't see anything on the screen. How do I fix this from either Setup or Safe Mode? I tried safe mode, made sure the resolution was 800 x 600 and restarted, but it didn't work. I have my friends monitor plugged in right now and everything is fine, but he needs this back, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ok, Im an idiot. I had a brain fart and didn't realize that obviously since I was using a larger monitor from my friends, I could then just change the resolution back to 800 x 600, since my small monitor cant handle anything else. Disregard this lol

It's not a `smaller/larger' thing. It's a `older poorer/newer better' thing.
