Displays goes Sideways

[tuned]

I just noticed an interesting issue w/ my settings in XP. I have a Dell
computer w/ integrated video that I upgraded to XP, and I've noticed that if
I choose the 864 x 1152 display settings my screen gets rotated 270 degrees.
Any of the other settings is fine, just that one seems to be giving me
problems. Just wondering if anyone has had a similar issue.

Hi Tuned.
This is not a problem, it's a feature!
If the first number is smaller then the second, then you are asking that the
screen width be less than the screen height. How else is windows to fulfill
your request?

Makes sense, didn't think about it like that. Thanks for the quick response.
