Ok, I have really screwed something up! I was trying to switch to me secondary monitor because the video card enabled 32-bit. Well, after I switched and restarted my computer is completely blank. I have no icons, tollbar, NOTHING. I can right click and get the menu, but when I click on properties I get nothing. No menu. How can I change my primary monitor back if I can't see anything?!

Please HELP!!!

Have you tried booting into Safe Mode? That should get you booted with a Standard VGA monitor that will at least be usable.

Press F8 while the system's booting to get the Safe Mode menu.
