DESTROYED MY MONITOR - Xeater

Not sure this will help, but did you try zapping the pram? Or, can you run it on an external monitor and restore the default internal display prefs via system preferences or maybe a reinstall?

This is some seriously reckless shareware. The author really needs to pull it until he can do some quality assurance. My suggestion: offer it for free as a beta application with a strong warning to users. It will pay off in the long run.

DESTROYED MY MONITOR - japanime

I was able to get my monitor back by doing a reinstall while hooked up to an external monitor.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SHITEWARE!

Sorry about the issue.
As you said yourself, the monitor was back when reinstalling, so it was not destroyed.

Certainly you could restore it without any reinstallation, generally just one single file is modified by the program when you create a new timing, and just restoring this single file is sufficient.

In all cases, it <b>is</b> indicated that you can potentially shoot yourself in the foot when trying to add custom timings.

I don't say it's anyone's fault, but trying to tweak timings, which is also what this tool is designed for, is probably designed for persons who know what they are doing, who are willing to try to tweak their system, taking the responsibility for it, and who don't shout afterwards if it fails.

I try to help anyone who ends up in this kind of situation, intentionnaly or not, if they ask for support. I feel sad to see that it's easier to whine on Versiontracker before asking for help...
