Hi Brian,
Try this
Right click on desktop - Personalise - Display - Display settings, there should be a dropdown (drop sideways :p ) to set the orientation

Hi All,

I have fixed it myself. Used the old XP method, Ctrl Alt and the arrow keys.

That does not work on my version of Vista, and neither does the afore mentioned answer. So not sure what i would do should it happen to me.

Hello Brian,

Welcome to the Vista Forums.

Since you haven't yet filled in you system specs. (User CP link above), I don't know what card you have. I have an Nvidia card. Start/control panel/Nvidia control panel. The option is in there.

Hope this helps.

Gary
