Title: Wierd, wierd problem.
Post by: howardw on September 29, 2005, 07:26:36 PM

This evening the image on my monitor suddenly started displaying horizontally. Thus, I now have my monitor on it's side to be able to use it. Not sure how this happened. Any fix?

Btw, I'm using Windows XP.

Thank you.

Somebody recently reported this and the solution within the last week in this forum (although theirs was upside down as I recall). You might do a search for "monitor" or "upside down" or something even more descriptive.

GX1_MAN,

You are the bomb dude.

Found the info to correct it. Hold down the ALT, the CTRL and the UP ARROW KEY at the same time.

Thanks again.
