Try Display properties, Advanced to locate the graphics adapter Screen
Rotation setting.

This is to do with your Display Driver, which you probably have a icon
in the system tray tó access. Try right clicking on the icon (maybe
ATI) and see what options you have ...

In the mean time turn your mouse sideways... ;-) this happened to me a
week or so ago and really turning the mouse sideways helped.

I encounted some kind of spyware/virus that did that to a machine about a
year ago. There was no advance display properties to make it happen.
Looked fine in safe mode. There was about 100 different spyware infections
and a handful of viruses. Ended up reformatting cuz it was so messed up.

What is pressing that combination supposed to do? On my system it seems to
refresh the screen. Is that it?

Read the Marmaduke comic strip with the sideways install on the wall of the big
plasma TV screen in the home on 4-19-06.
It must be for people who only watch TV while lying down on the couch.

On a few motherboards, the video is built in.
By hitting the key combinations, you can turn the screen , right , upside
down and left.
I think this is part of 3 dimension screen presentations.
