1310560 2012-11-05 02:38:00 I was playing an old WW2 game and when my plane crashed
the screen went black so I pressed random keys to try and get
the picture back. when it reappeared the colour was 8 bit but my
main problem is the screen is now at 90 degrees. I am typing
this sideways and my neck is beginning to ache. Please help.

1310561 2012-11-05 02:40:00 Usually CTRL + ARROW_KEY will turn the screen in the direction of the arrow. WarNox (8772)
1310562 2012-11-05 02:40:00 Have you tried rebooting? Bryan (147)
1310563 2012-11-05 02:49:00 EDIT - CRL + ALT + arrow key, in this case the up arrow, will do what you want Nick G (16709)

This should fix the 8bit colour issue. (Had to link to it as I haven't used windows in a while now ;))

1310568 2012-11-05 04:32:00 Glad you got your problem fixed, well done Nick on the support. Suggest you dont crash your plane in future :D Iantech (16386)
1310569 2012-11-05 18:47:00 I think if you disable the accessability options from control panel this doesn't happen any more, I used to do it as a practical joke and less than 50% of PC's it actually works on. dugimodo (138)
