Anybody know how to flip the monitor image upside down?

Does anyone know how to do this? Ctrl+Alt+Arrow Key does not work for me. Does anyone know if there is any type of program that can do this?

Thanks for the help =).

You'll have to use the control panel for your video card. ie, catalyst control center for ATi, or nView for nVidia. I'm on a machine with nView installed at the moment, and I can see that you can rotate the monitor image with NVRotate.

My video card doesn't support rotating, but I did find a program called Pivot Pro that will rotate your screen, so I'm okay... It is only 30 day trial, so I am going to have to fix that =).

I think your monitor manufacturer website has download for that, well I know that Samsung does-at least for my model.

Okay, I've looked into this issue before and Ctrl+Alt+Arrow did not work before and when I went to my Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile options, rotation was grayed out. But after installing and uninstalling Pivot Pro, it isn't grayed out anymore! I know it sounds like the option was always there, or possibly I updated the driver, but I'm 90% sure that the rotation option was grayed out. Anyways, if anyone is looking at this in the future, and the rotation option is grayed out, try installing Pivot Pro, then uninstalling it. Worth a shot, right?

Thanks.
