Display Properties, advanced section.
Look for a way to rotate the display/screen/monitor.

You might try:
CTRL+ALT+UP ARROW

If that does not work...
CTRL+SHIFT+R

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 very likely accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and some
arrow key. Rotate it back using those keys.

No problem. Glad to hear it.

These are publically distrubuted (worldwide) newsgroups - although they may
be accessed through various web interfaces and are synchronized with various
web forums/message boards in the world as well.

I have included all the conversation in this one posting so that anyone
doing a Google (or other search engine) in the future might come across this
and your affirmation of success - and thus fix their issue more readily.

Here it is - in its entirety - archived indefinitely.

Thank you for coming back! It is appreciated more than you know when people
come back just to let others know what worked and what did not!
