Everything on my computer screen is oriented on the side.

My child got a hold of my laptop for about 1 minute before I caught and closed the screen.  When I opened it upward later, everything on my screen has rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise.  I can't get it back to normal orientation.  How can I fix it?

Hello

Right-click on an empty area of the desktop - graphics Options - Rotation

CTRL + ALT + arrow key it also runs.

CTRL + Alt + (up arrow), Ctrl + Alt + arrow (pointing down), Ctrl + Alt + arrow (left) and also Ctrl + Alt + arrow (right)

I hope this helps.

    Right-click on the taskbar, don't check that no check mark to 'lock the taskbar '.

    Method 1:

    Left-click in the taskbar and HOLD > drag the taskbar to the top of the screen.

    Method 2:

    Right click on the task bar > click Properties > tab taskbar at the top > in place of the taskbar on the screen, click on the pointer, and then select top > click OK when finished.

  • Computer screen remains empty when the computer is started.

    I recently moved my computer in a another part of the House and when I got back everything was working properly.  I was in the middle of the removal of unused on my computer programs when I had a program not responding do not message.  All the icons have disappeared off the screen and the taskbar, but I could still see the background.  I shut down the computer manually becase Ctrl + alt + delete didn't work.  Now, when I turn the computer on the gateway screen comes up and the green bar when windows is preparing to start, but it loads a blank screen. The only visible thing on it is the mouse pointer.  I tried to use the windows vista operating cd but it wont run it.  Any ideas?

    No you can hear it running.  I would say that it was computer games that I uninstall and the wireless card that I used on it, now it is connected directly to the wireless router. Also, I forgot to mention in the post above that I had the computer on it two weeks and when I had it up and running in the other room windows defender came on wanting scanner, so I let it scan and then the antivirus software did a scan of the computer.  They both finished without any problems.  My antivirus (McAfee) software installed updates at the time wherever it froze.

    go to safe mode (press f8 when you turn on your pc) then preform scan using

    Malwarebyte s

    and get avast download or try the mcafee update after scaning above programs using

    then in safe mode go to msconfig by typing it in the search box of windows and enter presing. then prepare your computer to clean boot by disabling all startup items and non-windows services. then restart?

    See if it solves your problem?

    My husband has Windows XP, it should have relied on a button and this screen once it arrives at the opening of session turns on the side, how do I get that back to normal please?

    Hold down the Alt and Ctrl key and try the up/down/left/right arrows to change the rotation of the screen. Sometimes this has no effect, but I hope that you will be lucky. Let us know that if it does not, in which case we might need the details of your graphics card/chip.

    f you have an LCD monitor you will need to know what is the native resolution (recommended); see the monitor documentation or visit the site of the manufacturer of the monitor to the specifications.

    To change your screen resolution
     http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/display_change_screen_resolution.mspx?mfr=true

    Change the resolution of your monitor
     http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-XP/help/Setup/change-monitor-resolution

    The resolution must be set correctly or changing it does not correct the situation, you may reinstall or update your drivers for video cards ("I think I got something that I shouldn't").

    Visit the computer manufacturer support site, and then search for updated video drivers for your specific computer model and version of Windows XP (family or professional edition) and for professionals either 32-bit or 64-bit (Windows XP Home Edition was available in 32 - bit).

    If you have a dedicated graphics card 'map', visit the support site of manufacturers of card drivers for this specific video card and your version of Windows and so on.

  • Everything on my computer screen appear larger than normal

    I unplugged my computer about 4 days ago to take a trip with me. When I restarted my computer all on my computer including my background, websites, icons, aim, etc. displayed more large and more distortion than normal. The zoom level is 100% normal. This has happened in the past, but once I restarted my computer, my screen is always returned to normal. I would like to know how to fix this because I restarted my computer about 3 or 4 times, but everything that appears on my screen is still distorted and higher than normal.

    Hello Swils117,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

    If you haven't tried these steps, that give a try.

    1 / right click on a free part of the Office

    2 / in the drop down menu, click the view option

    3 / according to the context menu, click one of the following options:

    • Large icons
    • Medium-sized icons
    • Classic icons

    The classic icons option will reduce the size the most.  Please let me know if that solved your problem or if you are still having problems.
