Hi Mandy,
You might need a little sighted help here.
Control Panel, Display will take you into the video settings
dialog. From there, it can be tricky, but not impossible.
The following is for my Toshiba laptop, but it should be
similar for most laptop displays.
Select the Settings tab. (This is where you would normally
select screen resolution and colour quality.) Click on the
"Advanced" button.
There will be a number of tabs here too, and one of them
will usually be for the specific video in your system.
(FYI, the others are normally General, Adapter, Monitor,
Troubleshoot and Colour Management, so you can ignore these)
In my case, it's called "GeForce4 420 Go".
There are only two buttons on my dialog, Device Settings and
"GeForce4 420 to Go". When I click on the latter, a Windows
Explorer type tree list comes up, and at the very bottom is
an item called "NV Rotate". When I click on that, I get a
dialog with 4 radio buttons, the first of which is
"Landscape (0 degree rotation)" which, when selected, puts
the screen back to normal again.
George.

Nothing I've tried nor friends with sight has put my laptop
screen right so looks as though I'll have to speak to Dell
tomorrow wonder if they'll come out for it? Will it be
classed as a hardware problem I imagine it will.

Mandy, the JAWS key can be either the insert, caps
lock, or scroll lock key, depending on the keyboard layout
set. By default using the desktop layout it's the insert key
whilst the laptop is the caps lock key. So press one of
those, hold it, and press the number 3 on the numbers row.
Hope this helps.

Mandy, try this:
1. Press JAWS key 3. This will tell
JAWS to "ignore the next key or keys being pressed".
2. Press control alt up arrow. I've
read that this should orientate the screen so that it's the
right side up.
Hope that helps.

Please can someone help?
My laptop screen is reversed so that
not only is the screen the wrong way but someone using the
mouse has to move right for left etc.
I've been told either alt control
arrow keys which is used for tables isn't it and doesn't
seem to work: or else shift control arrow keys which didn't
seem to work either any ideas or if I have to go into
control panel can someone please tell me step by step
instructions otherwise I suppose I'll have to ask Dell but
don't think an engineer will come out for this.
Mandy.
