I am a Dell certified tech and the answer is CTRL + ALT + Up Arrow

On my computer, there's an icon of a monitor in the task tray (bottom right-hand corner), that you click on to select graphics properties. If it's similar to mine, screen rotation will be in there somewhere. Change it to normal and uncheck the rotation option. There's a combination of key strokes that changes it which you probably did by accident. Hope that helps.

It sounds like you changed the setting in display settings to rotate. Right click the background of your computer and go to properties and then settings and click on the advanced button. There should be a rotate tab where you can reset this back to what it should be.

Hold down the CTRL and ALT keys and then push the up arrow key (or let/right) - I guess you are using Windows XP Pro. If not this then check your video card, as is will probably have an option for landscape/portrait for those with swivel monitors

Try right-clicking your desktop, go in to your display properties, and click on the settings tab. Go into advanced and there should be an option in there to fix your screen settings.

if the ctrl alt arrow does not work, on your desktop right click and select graphics options. look for the tab that says rotation, and click the correct rotation.

Rotate the whole thing, by 270 degrees, and you SHOULD be back, where you started!
Shouldn't be a problem!
