So I was trying to load a cd and it wasn't loading, so I hit alt/ CTRL/ dlt to see if anything was wrong, and all of a sudden my screen turned black and fliped around 90 degrees.  I may have hit another button by accident, but I dunno what I could have hit to do that.  I have winbdows xp, no new settign have been applyed, what could it be?

and yes my head is tilted sideways typing this. lol.I'm new here, as of this morning, but I'm having similar troubles!! Only my screen turns sideways every time I wake it up from hibernation. Anyway, to turn it BACK to normal, just right click on your desk top and GO to properties. Under the settings tab, click Advanced, and see if there is a Rotation tab.

Hope that helps! Someone just SHARED that with me this morning. Hope you don't have continued troubles with your monitor like I'm having!hmm I dont see a rotation tab anywhere in there...Hmmm... maybe you have a DIFFERENT version than I do. You're looking at the Advanced under settings??

Anyway, being a newbe myself, I'm not much help, but have you tried shutting down the computer? That's the only other thing that worked for me.

If that doesn't work, someone else will have to help you. There are much better experts around here than me. Maybe they can help both of us!! yep, tried both those, but thanks anyways.  What videocard is installed and what drivers are you using?Quote from another forum...

"She had intel 845 graphics and there is a rotation setting in the software."
