Brian,

Yes, good that you solved it. However the important point is that it is easy to 
do with a laptop, since there are Ctrl Alt arrow commands to do it. You need to 
follow Dan's directions to disable that capability to rotate, so you don't get 
caught again.

    Well, you can ignore the JAWS complaint, although I've not seen that one. 
My settings are 1024 x 768, and JAWS never complains. What version of JAWS?

      Dave,
      I rebooted and as soon as Jaws came up, it read a message that said:
      This is not the optamum screen resolution.  The optamum screen resolution 
os 1280 by 800.  I've actually been seeing this for a while, but it hasn't been 
effecting sonar until now when I opened it up today...

        Yes, I'd recommend you first do a reboot now just to see where your 
display settings are. Have you changed your monitor recently? Strange that your 
settings would have changed.

        Or are you running a different application that requires a different 
resolution?

          Hey Dave,
          Tryed that but when I opened up sonar again, it still said had the 
incorrect settings...  Do you have to shut down your computer for it to take 
effect in sonar...  Actually when I first went in to the display settings, it 
looked like it was set to that setting, but when I went in to sonar said I had 
the incorrect setting, that it needed to be 1024, but it said mine was at 768.  
Don't know what to do

            Brian,

            Then you need to set your display setting to 33%. That should do 
it.

              Sorry...
              For the 33 percent one, I am seeing 768 by 1024 pixels

                      Just wanted to follow up to give you the settings that I 
am seeing in the dispaly settings for the resolution combo box...
                0 percent- 720 by 1280 pixels
                33 percent- 720 by 1280 pixels
                66 percent- 768 by 1280 pixels
                100 percent- 800 by 1280 pixels...
                Those are all the settings that I am seeing...  Any suggestions

                Brian
