Windows Forum / Windows XP / General Topics 1 / July 2004Screen rotate 90 degrees
Dear All, I am a user of WinXP pro. My son wrongly press some keys on the keyboard, then the screen suddenly rotate 90 degrees and I don't know how to resume back. The problem still appear after I rebooted the PC. Please advise what can I do to resume back to normal? Any hot key to rotate the screen? Thanks & Regards, Edmund Hi, Edmund. What make and model computer/monitor/graphics card? Your answer is likely to be specific to your hardware. But you might try to see what settings are available in Display Properties. RC  SignatureR.

I read through the Display Propertys setting, but it seems no option related to the feature of screen rotation. Thanks & Regards, Edmund >-----Original Message----- >Hi, Edmund.

There should be a setting there to fix this.
