[SOLVED]Resetting "Display Settings" in KDE

Long story short, I was playing with the settings for my monitors (I'm on a laptop, with an HDMI tv connected) and I set my laptop screen to disabled, so I could just use the TV as a monitor in its native resolution. I changed to resolution for the tv to one it apparently doesn't support, so now if I plug in my HDMI monitor, I have no picture on either screen, and if I try to open Display Settings, it shuts off my laptop screen... I have no ideas on how to fix this. Thank you in advance for the help.

Nevermind, fixed it after a little more fiddling. Let the thread die.

Before I finished my replay, you changed the post to solved. I just wondered, have you solved your problem by editing/deleting this file:

 /home/<user name>/.kde4/share/config/krandrr

No, I blindly typed in xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto into terminal.

I've never used xrandr, but good to know, thanks.
