Screen Rotated on my Windows XP

Asked By mrihan 220 points N/A Posted on - 04/20/2011

Hi all,

When my brother's kids are playing a game in my Laptop, they accidentally pressed some keys. So now, the (Display)screen became upside down.

 

Could anybody help me to keep the screen display in the correct way?

 

Thanks

Hi Dear,

When we install extreme graphic drivers on our computer, screen rotation options became enabled. You can turn your screen with key or mouse shortcuts.

Here are some shortcuts.
CTRL+ALT+Right Arrow.
CTRL+ALT+Left Arrow.
CTRL+ALT+Up Arrow.
CTRL+ALT+Down Arrow.
You have to press CTRL+ALT+Up Arrow to make your screen straight.
I hope this helps you.
Thanks.
