Default Mirroir dual monitor accident... - 11-15-2010, 10:16 PM

I have my dell mini 10V up and running again and had it hooked up to a hp 23" hd monitor looked amazing and the little hackintosh could run the monitor on full res!
Problem is i was an idiot and accidentally clicked on mirroring monitors and now every time i plug in the monitor both screen kinda become a distorted with vertical lines. and i can't change it back with out having the monitor plugged in....
any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

Umm, OK, the link I provided was to an app, but whatever.

From the above linked website-

"Note to Hackintosh Users

This is program is essential if you run OS X on an MSI Wind, Dell Mini, and a few other hacked netbooks as it helps get around a screen corruption issue when plugging in an external display. Mirror Displays will not enable mirroring if mirroring is broken on your netbook. What it will do is allow you to easily toggle out of mirrored mode and into extended desktop mode without needing to see what you’re doing."
