Changing resolution from command line

I used to have my HTPC to output via component to my HDTV. But I've kind of separated the unit from my TV and haven't used my HTPC this summer. (My HDTV is still with my old roommates and my HTPC is with me right now.) Anyway, I want to switch the output to composite, but I can't because none of my displays are working with the current output once MCE loads. It's fine when I start MCE in VGA-mode by pressing F8 at loading, but I'm not able to access my nVidia settings from this boot mode. Output is from a 6200Turbocache using nVidia's drivers from around June 2007.

How can I change my output without having to reunite my HDTV and HTPC? I'm totally fine with starting a command prompt blindly and typing in some commands, but I don't know what commands would change my resolution.

Thanks but I saw that already. It would work except for the fact that I can't see where the shell is and have no idea what drive letters are even in use anymore. Anyway, I thought my problem was a matter of composite not being able to handle ~1266x668 or whatever nVidia used to output to my HDTV. After some thought (and trying to get output via DVI), I think it was a matter of the nVidia drivers only sending component output to the display. I ended up reinstalling MCE on the machine and configuring it here. Hopefully it'll output composite when I finally move it to its new home. This time around, I've set it up to clone the display to composite instead of using component as the primary output.
