A neat little trick you can do in Windows is rotate your entire screen orientation. Try the key combination: Ctrl + Alt + [Arrow Key]. The up arrow will keep or return the orientation to normal and the right, down, and left arrows, respectively, rotate the screen clockwise.
Note, this seems to work on most newer graphic chipsets, so it may not work on older graphics cards or integrated video.

this keystroke combination is applicable mainly to systems using intel graphics chipsets.
Another possibility: check Control Panels for an “Intel Extreme Graphics” control panel. Open it and you should have an option to enable rotation as well as buttons for 90, 180 and 270 degrees. If you select Enable Rotation and shut off Num lock you will be able to rotate the screen using the arrow keys on the keypad – Ctrl/Option/Right Arrow (in the keypad) will rotate 90 degrees, Ctrl/Option/Down Arrow for 180, Ctrl/Option/Left Arrow for 270 and Ctrl/Option/Up arrow to return the screen to normal.
