I disabled my vga adapter for a reason I really cant think of right now through -
Right click desktop, properties, display, advanced, then I disabled it somehow, I cant remember the exact tab. It asked to restart and I clicked yes, and of course, now its disabled and I cant see anything. How can I enable it again? Yeah im stupid.

Can you get to safe mode? Start up the computer. Before the OS starts to load start tapping F8. Choos 'safe mode' from the menu. If it boots to the desktop, re-enable the video.
