No problem. Easily resolved one of two ways:

1) Hard way but less takign stuff apart - enter the BIOS and try to restore settings while blind. People actually do this.

2) Easy way: Make sure laptop is OFF. Remove Laptop battery to be sure. Take bottom panels off of laptop and try to find the CMOS battery. Removing it will reset the BIOS. So remove it, and then put it back in. You'll just have to fix your date/time.
