Windows horizontal instead of vertical

[Guest]

Hi.

I am hoping I can get some assistance on a very unusal problem that has just
occurred with my nine day old notebook.

I have Windows XP - Home - and as of yesterday everything on my notebook is
now appearing horizontal instead of vertical. Which means I have to hold my
head at an angle to view, read or type anything! After a few minutes of this,
I have a very sore neck!

Appreciate any assistance I can get regarding thi unusal situation!

:O)

It's actually not unusual at all. It's fairly common.

It's a feature of your video card. Try Ctrl-Alt-Up Arrow (or sometimes
Ctrl-Shift-R).

It got that way because you hit that key combination by accident, without
realizing it.
