Many graphic cards have the option to rotate the text on the screen, to turn
the screen page to the same shape as a paper page, great for word
processing. Many monitors can be position vertuically for the same use.

Right click a blank area of the screen, Properties, settings, advanced, and
examine all the options on the advanced tabs for one to change screen
orientation. It may be called anything, not necessarily orientation, just
examine the descriptions. Change just that item(record the setting name in
case you have to change it back)

| Hi
|
| I have a friend who has a computer where the display is rotated
| anticlockwise by 90 degrees. This means that you have to turn your head to
| read the screen.
|
| Everything else is working well - just rotated. On startup the screen
| behaves normally, but once you get to the Windows sign on screen, things
| change.
|
| I am currently running a virus check, is there anything else that could
| produce this wierd behavior.
|
| Cheers
