Changing Display Settings

Hi, I was just using my sony vaio ns305d and I clicked on a display setting in the "clone mode" tab called display mode.  That turned my monitor black.  I can hear the computer working like it is still working correctly but I can't see anything nor ca I see anything when I connect the computer to my TV.  Can I change the setting back without seeing anything?  Alt + F7 and the AV mode button don't seem tohelp. thanks, Steve
