Screen Orientation - Help !!!!

Help !!!

My son has managed to rotate the screen orientation on my husbands laptop. It has been rotated 90 degrees clockwise, and therefore is not terribly user friendly! I've tried using the 'help' topics - but found them not very helpful!

Can anyone advise on what to do?

Thanks

    No that just scrolls up and down.

  • It works on every laptop. Are you sure you are pressing at the same time CTRL, ALT and either up arrow or down arrow. Because it works!

    I'm sorry but I couldn't get your method to work at all. If I had MSE open then it purely scrolled up and down. I even closed MSE and tried it and nothing happened.

    I have managed to sort it now - via the settings tab in the display options - how he found himself there I do not know! Thanks anyway
