Sum1 please help me 2 restore the screen... Try hitting the Ctrl + Alt + Up arrow key all at the same time. If that doesn't fix the problem, go to Control Panel and double click the Display icon. Click on the Settings tab and hit the Advanced button. Hopefully, you'll find the correct keyboard combination listed there. If that doesn't help, you'll have to consult the documentation for your computer's display adapter. Good luck Nepatsfan

The ability to rotate the screen image is a feature of your video card, to help it work with monitors that rotate to portrait orientation. You accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and some arrow key. Rotate it back using those keys. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup
