I have a great install working perfectly, 10.8.2, i5, HD4000, 1080 display, all works great. Just now, though, I changed the display resolution to 800x600 to make something larger just for a second, when I did, though, the video garbled as I've seen it do on older Hackintoshes when I was monkeying with display resolutions.

The problem is it stayed that way, even through reboots. The only way I got back up, and am typing this now, is that i do a nightly clone to another internal hard drive and I just booted off of that one.

My question is how do I change the display settings back on my main hard drive so I can boot it and use it again? Is there a plist I need to modify?

Thanks!!
