Computer Monitor upside down

My daughter just called me and asked how to correct her monitor image. It suddenly turned upside down, i.e. the desktop is upside down, her e-mail is upside down, everything! I have never heard of this happening. Can anyone help? She must have clicked a wrong key combination or something like that???
Thanks
Al

 

Yes, some video cards support this function. I can't say exactly where the setting is, but if you were to follow the steps below, you'd be ALMOST there:

1. Right click anywhere on the desktop
2. Select 'Properties'
3. Select the 'Settings' tab
4. Press the 'Advanced' button

I'm willing to wager that on one of the tabs you see now there is a setting to rotate the display. There might be an even easier way if she has the correct taskbar icon. You could try clicking the one for your video card, and it might provide an easier way to find the rotation setting.

 

Thanks, Mada_Milty, but that one didn't do it. Nowhere is there a rotate image function. Have to keep looking.

Thanks, guys! Problem solved. It was rather simple on the PC in question.
Right click desktop and click on graphic options - I guess it is the graphics card settings.

Some background info for anyone interested, from an old MG thread

Display, upside down in XP. http://8help.osu.edu/1722.html

Within Windows XP, certain video drivers or graphics card chipsets supporting 180 degree screen rotation can cause the Windows XP display to be presented upside down. This can be (but is not always) tied to lowering the screen resolution in some accessibility programs. MG68720.
To revert to a right-side up display, hold down the CTRL, ALT and UP (arrow) keys.
