Display is rotated 90 degrees

[Wayne H.]

Random typing on the keyboard of an HP
d530S/P2.4/40bw/256D/4 US has rotated the display 90
degrees. Is this a Windows XP function or, perhaps
something from the BIOS? (I'm asking HP the same thing.)
If the former, how do you reverse it?

You need to tell us what brand of video card or adapter you have.
If you happen to have a NVIDIA card or adapter, right-click on
your desktop and select:

Properties > Settings > Advanced > GeForce (tab) > NVRotate
and change the setting to "Landscape (0 degree rotation)".

I have an HP computer and you can rotate the display using the Graphics
Options.

Right click on the desktop and select "Graphic Options" then select
"Properties." You should have a tab labeled "Rotation."
Make your selection from there.
