Help Black Screen Problem - Need Key Sequences

So I just got the black screen problem this morning. I dropped by phone by accident & the battery popped out, and now my screen stays black but everything else on the phone seems to be working. This has happened to me twice before, and I've managed to get it working again but I can't remember how :rolleyes:

Anyway, I'm trying to do a hard reset of my phone & I don't know the key press sequence to do so. Since I can't see anything on the screen I'd have to do it by feel. I'm running CyanogenMod 6.0.0 with ClockworkMod.

Can somebody post the key sequence I'd need to press, either when the phone is fully booted or from within recovery, in order to do this?

Also, any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated. I've searched all over the forums & haven't found much in the way of solutions, but I know it's fixable as it's happened to me before.
