Many display adapters use Ctrl + Alt + the arrow keys to rotate the display. Check the documentation for your system if these keys don't work. Good luck Nepatsfan

You'll have to look in the help for your video software to determine what is the key combo for rotating the screen. If it put an icon in the tray area, you may be able to find a right-click context menu entry for rotating the screen.

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. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP Windows - Shell/User Please Reply to the Newsgroup
