Help. My display screen is upside down. I shut down on
Sat. and came back on Sunday and my display was upside
down.The opening screen pf HP is ok its only when it goes
to the WINDOWS welcome screen that it flips. I went to my
Display Adapter and un-installed it and it re-booted
correctly. But then in the middle of doing work on my
computer it went USD again.Does anyone have a solution.MC

Check to see if there is a rotation setting or tab on your video card. Some
graphics cards allow you to change the image orientation.

Your rotation settings are being triggered. Either a joke file has
landed on your system, or your graphics card has hot key settings that
you're hitting accidentally.

If you have a graphics icon in your system tray, look in there for
rotation. Otherwise, right-click the desktop, properties, settings
tab, advanced. Look in the graphics settings for rotation. With my
Intel system it's in Intel extreme graphics, graphics properties
button. After you've put things to rights, I'd suggest you disable the
function.
