I briefly left my system while I was entering in a data entry program. When
I returned, the monitor image was sideways and I don't know how to restore
it. I re-booted in "Safe" mode and it was ok. When I re-booted again, it was
still in "Sideways" mode. How can I correct this?

Thanks,

Gerry Goldberg

By "sideways", I mean rotated 90 degrees

Hi

Try this:

Right click the Desktop, select Properties>Settings>Advanced. See if there
is a setting in there to rotate the screen back to normal. If you have
Nvidia software installed try clicking on the tab for your graphics card and
have a look for NVRotate on the left hand side.

If you do have an Nvidia card there may be an icon in the Notification Area.
If so, right click on it, select Rotation Settings and then set it to 0
degrees.
