have you tried turning off the cubed setting? not sure what setting you plan to keep.

to open dash you can press the super key (windows key) on your keyboard. you should be able to search for the compiz manager and change the settings.

you can press CTRL+ALT+ F1 to enter terminal.
ALT+Tab to switch between open windows.

have a look here

you can try entering "ccsm" in at terminal to get to the compiz settings.
