Try going into the Control Panel and checking the display settings, I think it's called monitors and displays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

883girl Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Upside-Down Display In Windows XP Within Windows XP, certain video drivers or graphics card chipsets supporting 180 degree screen rotation can cause the Windows XP display to be presented upside down. This can be (but is not always) tied to lowering the screen resolution in some accessibility programs. To revert to a right-side up display, hold down the CTRL, ALT and UP (arrow) keys. Another option is to contact Microsoft for a fix. See the Microsoft Knowledge Base for more information. Might be the same for Vista - worth a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be the same for Vista - worth a try I know on xp you can rotate and flip, do it for presentations on an external screen, and you can split the screens, but never put it upsidedown yet. tried but could not get it either, I wonder if it has always done it or just happened recently? maybe second hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
