    Heh, sounds like you've had a little prank played on you. This is pretty normal. Alot of video cards will allow you to rotate the display. To correct this, please do the following:

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

    Somewhere on this page should be settings that control the rotation of your display. I cannot say exactly where, as I do not know what video card you have. Look around, I'm confident you will find it.
