Try hitting the Ctrl +Alt + Up arrow keys all at the same time. If this doesn't fix the problem, look in Control Panel - Display Properties - Settings - Advanced. You need to check the screen rotating hot keys for your particular display adapter. On a side note, how about turning off the Caps Lock key the next time you post a question. Good luck Nepatsfan |

Please don't yell at us. We can hear you if type normally, in mixed case. The ability to rotate the screen image is a feature of your video card, to help it work with monitors that rotate to portrait orientation. You accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and some arrow key. Rotate it back using those keys. In the future, avoid tapping buttons indiscriminately. This time, it was a minor problem; next time it could be much worse. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup |
