Desktop screen is upside

Original title: TOPSIE TURVEY

My computer keeps flipping on the side. Every time I close the lid of my computer, and open it again the screen is upside down or sideways. I know how to do the temporary fix but I'm looking for the permanent solution to this! Please help someone

Hi Kimberly,

CTRL + ALT and arrow keys (up, down and sideways) allows to rotate the screen.

However, if you have a graphics software, you can change the rotation of the screen of it and check.

1. a click right an empty area of the desktop.
2. Select Customize.

3. then click display (in the left pane), and select change display settings.

4. Select avancΘs.

You may have to search a bit depending on your driver, but look for the rotation parameters.

Hope this information is useful. If you have any questions, then let us know.

    The ability to rotate the screen image is a characteristic of your video
    card, to help work with instructors who turn to the portrait
    orientation. Almost certainly you accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and
    an arrow key.

    Hi FrankMaffie,

    ·         Have to remind you to make changes on the computer before the show?

    You must have accidentally hit Ctrl + Alt + left/right/down/arrow up and the screen swivels.

    To make this work "shortcut keys" option should be enabled, otherwise it wouldn't work. Here's how you can enable or disable the "keys" on Windows XP.

    a. right click somewhere on the desktop and choose "graphics properties."

    (b) a window opens. There, you can press "Hot Keys" and enable or disable this option by checking or unchecking the checkbox.

  • He said I have a connected projector and my screen is upside down what I do?

    I put it to extend but if I try to play a game or something like it my screen goes in upside down, and when I turn my computer on my screen is upside down. Help, please

    I don't know the relevant relationship between your projector and your game and your computer screen.

    Here's how to fix the screen of the computer being upside down...

    Method 1:
    Press and HOLD on Ctrl + Alt keys > use the arrow keys (up, down, left, right) to realign the screen

    Second method:
    Right-click on the free space of the desktop > graphics > Rotation > try normal first, then the other options.

  • On my Satellite C660-174 desktop screen does not open properly

    I'm a newbie here so my question is maybe obvious to some, but not for me!

    My laptop Satellite C660-174 (running Windows 7) ceased to open correctly. Everything is normal until my password is entered. Rather than open up to my "desktop" with its icons all on the side I get a page with a banner "Toshiba Leading Innovation" through it and only four random icons on the side.

    How to restore my desktop screen and all the icons?

    Help will be appreciated.

    It's really not easy to understand what you see exactly.
    Can you please take a picture and send a link where we can see it?

    I really don't understand what could be the problem, but what you can try is to start your machine with F8 and enter advanced startup options. Choose the entry 'Repair your computer', then press 'Enter '. Go forward until you enter the system recovery options. Try to system restore to earlier date. Perhaps this will help you solve problem described.

  • Laptop HP pavilion 17-f115dx: start window and desktop screen

    The problem is the flashes of desktop screen between a blank blue screen with a task bar and a desktop at startup screen. My splash screen comes first, and no problem until I find myself on the desktop, then it flashes between other screens and also the splash screen. I have to control alt delete to close.

    I found the solution on another thread-

    1. press CTRL Alt Delete

    2. go in Task Manager

    3. go to the Services tab

    4. look to the bottom of the window, and then click Open Services

    5. under the name of the category to find Windows Error Reporting Service

    6. right click and select Properties

    7. go in Startup Type and change to disabled

    8. click on apply, and then click OK

    The flashing should stop immediately

    Alternative route:

    1. press CTRL Alt Delete

    2. go in Task Manager

    3. Select the file--> a new task

    4. type msconfig, then click ok

    5. Select the Services tab

    6. under the name of the category to find Windows Error Reporting Service & uncheck

    7. click on apply, and then click OK

    8 restart your computer & when you connect the flashing should be gone

    The first set of directions worked for me, but someone else did the second set because they couldn't do the first.

    Hope this helps!
