Yep. My screen just made a ninety degree counter clockwise turn. :( I wasnt even touching it when it happened. :( Could this have something to do with the lightning last night? :confused: Is there anyway I can fix it?

A number of things.

Well first up, choose the Menu option on your monitor and check if there is anything wrong there.

Also, check your video card drivers, as there may be an option to choose rotation.

It could have to do with lightning, having a slight jolt sent through the system could change a couple of settings.

Or it could just be computers playing up for no reason, either way, try those two things out.

Try to check your display properties(right click on the screen and properties) from there settings and advanced and from there rotation. Hope you can make some sense of this.

I was pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del when it happened. Probably my clumsy fingers at work.

I think I can take that to mean that you've fixed your problem?

(Incidentally, my colleague had the exact same problem happen to her today...fixed it in a jiffy:mischief: )
