Log in upside down and when you get to the desktop, right click go to your graphic card properties and Rotate 180. Should work. |

Dang, Chad...what have you been doing to your pc, dude?
Go to a blank spot on your desktop
Right click
go to "Properties"
click on "settings"
click on "Advanced"
go to "graphics driver"
click on "graphics properties"
click on "rotation"
go from there

<ctrl><alt><up> is the first thing to try.
RE: This is a feature in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition. Which makes sense. But it looks like ATI Intel copied the keystroke for the same “feature” in their video card drivers.

These...
<ctrl><alt><left>,
<ctrl><alt><right>,
<ctrl><alt><down>
...will all have interesting effects too, if you're using the ATI driver. |
