Screen Display Flipped Upsidedown!

Was installing some old games for my kids on a new Dell
Dimension 2400 running XP Home. All was well until I put
in the disk for Dr Seuss ABC and the display flipped
upside down! I cant work out how to get it back the right
way up.
Any help out there?

1. Stand on your head.
2. Invert monitor.
3. Look at the 'rotate picture' properties for your graphics card.

Hope this helps.

Greg,
Thanks - I've just found that this is a recognised MS
problemm in XP and that there is a hotfix. Where a
program tries to resize the resolution to a lower setting
the display can get rotated by 180 degrees.
I'll try to get the hotfix.

Some Grphic cards have that feature for some reason or another
Try pressing either
<Ctrl> + <shift> + <up>
of
<ctrl> + <shift> + <down>
either of these key combinations should fix the problem, if one doens't work try the other.
