TRACIE_LOU Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 My cheeky monkey son as just learnt how to climb onto the sofa and keeps hitting the laptop! He managed to flip the screen round!. I have managed to get it back the right way by running my hand across all the keys lol, But i'm sure there is something i can press to correct this if he does it again. he is only 14months so hasn't learnt what no means Any ideas please?

Guest Markiii Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 It will depend on your graphics/video card but on most pressing CTRL, ALT and UP ARROW should restore the screen to the correct way. CTRL ALT & SIDE ARROWS should rotate it 90 degrees cw/ccw. (my mate's cat did the same thing to his laptop. Took him ages to find out how to fix it!)
