How can I disable Mirroring when I can no longer see the Mirror Display checkbox?

Dell Hackintosh.
Running Snow Leopard 10.6 (successfully).

I successfully hooked up my Viewsonic VA1912w display to my hackintosh netbook and it worked fine as an Extended Display. Then to my chagrin I tried Mirroring the displays and now I only get random changing vertical bars and colors on both displays (no visual clues, icons, or anything useful).

How do I switch back to Extended or turn off Mirror? I cannot get to the Mirror check box because all I see is random vertical bars and stuff.

Is there some sort of control-tab key combination that will let me fix things?
Or can I use Terminal to turn on Extend or something?

HELP
