Hi
my 18 month old son hit a couple of keys at the same time on my keyboard
this morning and ever since my screen display is sideways for all programs
once the computer is fully booted up, initial dos display durring start up is
normal. i can't find an instruction on how to rotate it back to normal,
anyone have any ideas?

Open control panel and find the icon for your video card,somewhere in the
control
otions for your vid card you will find the option for screen rotation.Also
you might want to disable 'Hotkeys" also in the vid card controls so this
can't happen again.
 
I just managed to solve my problem by holding the Ctrl + Alt buttons while
pressing one of the arrow buttons which rotate the screen in every direction.
Thanks for your time and reply.
Cheers
 
Glad you sorted it out.
