How to change extra monitor settings when HDMI cable is not plugged in?
I was fiddling around with the settings under Devices and Printers trying to get a display on a Phillips flatscreen TV from a laptop. Nothing was being displayed. I think I applied the setting so that the main display would be on the TV. But as the TV isn't picking up the signal now whenever I plug it the HDMI cable the laptop screen goes blank and just displays the background and I can't use it. I want to be able to change the settings back but I don't know how to edit the settings when it isn't plugged in. Help much appreciated as this isn't any of my stuff. Thanks

ad. Before all this the drivers were updated and for a brief moment the TV displayed the laptop screen. It then asked to be restarted and I assumed that after the restart it would continue to function but no!
Thanks Schlenkster that worked perfectly, and I'm now watching the football on a big screen.

Press the windows key (the key between ctrl and alt) and p at the same time. Hit the right arrow key, and then enter. This is a quick way to change multiple monitor settings, and should switch it back even though you can't see it. If it didn't work, try it again, there are 4 different settings to scroll through (projector only, monitor only, extended, duplicated, not necessarily in that order). If this doesn't fix it, try going the other way.
