Hello esteemed colleagues of mine, it appears I have befuddled my cimputer with yet another problem. It seem that my monitor has gone and turned itself on it's side (the picture from the screen isflipped, thte top of the screen is on the right side of my monitor and the bottom is on the left). Any help is appreciated

My vidoe card is like an INTEL82845G. iI don't wanto turn the monitor on it's side because that would be annoying.

You didn't say how old the monitor is? If more that 4 years, get a new one. Flat screens are even low these days.

It's fairly new, but I did somehow break the power button off, so now I have to use a toothpick to turn it on. Anyhoo I just fixed the problem by finding the place where I can rotate my screen, apparently ti had been set to 270 degrees somehow. It was really weird, I was just playing ET and bam! Monitor screwed up. I was like, "dangit" and I ran all three of my ad-ware stoppers, nothing new, but it might have been that VX2 thing I was having trouble with awhile ago. Anyways, problem fixed. In lighter news, I scored a 92% on our practice standardized test.

Rumor has it on the web this could be a virus. I have doubts.

Try to download the latest greatest drivers Click right here . I'd say there's a setting within the software to turn the display too, but if you download and installed these drivers it should default to it's normal settings...upright.

Some confuzers can have their displays reset via hotkeys. Hate it when that happens.

I mean how often does anyone use this feature?
