Vista - Screen rotation 180 degrees

Help.

I feel like an idiot.

I put my telephone book on my keyboard and all of a sudden my screen (22"
LCD widescreen) rotated 180 degrees. Right now I am working with my screen
turned upside down. I cant find out which keys to hit to turn it back.

Help.

FRED

Place the phone book on the keyboard again. OR, go to your video card
control panel and find the rotate function. Then put the display back to
where it should be.

It's a feature of your video card, to support using a monitor that
works in portrait orientation. Try Ctrl-Alt-Up Arrow (or sometimes
Ctrl-Shift-R).

I also feel like an idiot. I hit something on my keyboard and it flipped my
screen 180 degrees also. The solutions listed in this discussion have not
worked for me. Any other suggestions?

Use the same phonebook again. (-:

Really, go to your video driver controls and look for the rotation control.
It is an option provided by Nvidia. I don't know about ATI.
