    Try Ctrl + Alt + an arrow key
    If doesn't work, look at your video display properties - there should be a rotate option

    Some video cards support the rotation of the image on your computer screen. You'd use this if you a monitor that can also rotate. Web designers and artists use this, as an example, to check long pages.

    It would appear that you managed to press CTRL + ALT + Left Arrow.
    To correct this problem simply click CTRL + ALT + Up Arrow.

    If that don't work then look in your video card settings.
