Hi yall, I'm love having the ability to work from home however it does have it's disadvantages. My kitty walked across my keyboard and now my display is sideways. How do I fix? Thanks.

Put the cat on the floor and give it a good petting (rubbing). Won't help the computer, but you and the cat will feel better...........

My screen is sideways

My screen is sideways

A. Some video cards support the rotation of the image on your computer screen. You’d use this if you a monitor that can also rotate. Web designers and artists use this, as an example, to check long pages.

It would appear that you managed to press CTRL + ALT + Left Arrow.

To correct this problem simply click CTRL + ALT + Up Arrow.

Thank you Stoli. I learned something new today. And, yes, I did try the "CTRL+ ALT+ Left Arrow" just to see if the picture on my screen would flip over on it's side, but it didn't.

Some one once said, put 1000 monkeys at 1000 keyboards for 1000 hours, and somewhere you will get the great American Novel.
I'd start by buying 999 more cats!

I love it when one of my cats jumps up on my desk and lands on documents with wet feet!
