alright so i was caring this laptop up to my room today and i was carrying it while it was open and the screen was 90 degrees from it's normal position...while carrying it(and other things as well) a couple fingers hit buttons on the left side of the computer. Right now i am typing on a screen that is rotated 90 degrees counter clockwise of the normal position of the screen. How do i change the display back....i'm under the control panel and display and trying that method. Any advice would be great unless the problem is irreversible

Check your ballast.

should be under the display properties on a laptop. I do not know what the hot button is for rotating, but there should be a rotate screen in the display properties if the right drivers and software are loaded for your display card.


look for the tab under display properties that is provided by your accelerator or display card (nvidia,intel,ATI, ect...) look for it there.
