My 8 month old daughter was smacking my keyboard this evening and somehow rotated my entire screen 90 degrees. Everything is shifted, web pages, the desktop, and the task bar. How do I correct this?

Check your monitor settings first...If you have a Dell there are controls on the monitor. go to the menu and rotate.

Try this. Right click on your desk top. Go to Graphics Options, Graphics Properties, and then click on the Rotation Tab. Uncheck the "Enable Rotation" Box. What I believe happened is that your daughter pressed a certain combination of keys, known as "Hot Keys." After you fix your rotation, you may want to disable hot keys to prevent this from happenening again.

It seems that you are using Intel chip based mbd. Just press Ctrl+Alt+UP ARROW key to rotate it back to original position. you may try Up,Down, Left or right Arrow combinations to cure it. To prevent it from happening in future right click on display properties icon in system tray (area near Clock in lower right corner of desktop) and select disable Hot Keys.

Right click on your desktop.
Click open "Properties".
Click open "Settings" tab.
Click open the "Advanced" tab that is seen towards the bottom right corner.
Click open the "Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver" tab.
Click open "Graphics Properties" tab seen towards the bottom right corner.
Click open "Rotation" tab.
Make your changes.
Another way to do this is:
If you have the Intel (R) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver icon in the systems tray at the bottom right hand corner of your screen or in your quick launch tool bar, then double click it to open the menu.
Select "Graphic option" and then the "Graphic Properties".
Click open "Rotation" tab.
Make your changes.
This is applicable provided your system has this particular Intel graphics driver and runs on Win.XP.
All the best.
