An upside down display is caused by unintentional pressing Ctrl-Alt plus the down arrow key.
Restore by pressing Ctrl-Alt plus the up arrow key.
ALSO
If the display is sideways then to change the display from portrait to landscape
Press Ctrl-Alt plus a left or right arrow key.

Some computers do not have this function.

Some one put something on my key board and it pushed a bunch of the buttons at once and the display on my screen no matter what is on after initial start up is sideways now. the mouse finger pad works...

To make the screen go back upright, while holding down _both_ the "ctrl" and "alt" keys, press the (arrow) up key.

As for the touchpad, you'll want to re-install the driver. Go into Device Manager by right clicking "Computer" or "My Computer" and select "manage", then click on Device Manager.

Once in Device Manager, click to expand "mice and other pointing devices" Right click the touchpad (usually Alps or Synaptics) and select "uninstall" MAKE SURE the box next to "delete the driver software for this device" is _NOT_ checked and continue. We just want to re-install the driver, not remove it. Then reboot. Give Windows a few minutes after the reboot and it will then re-install the driver and you should be OK.

Radioflyer wagon front wheels turn sideways while driving straight. How do we fix this? Its been like this ever since we bought it.

you can put a washer between the wagaon and the wheeler that ataches to the wagan so that its a little stiffer to turn but it wont stiffen up too much.it should stiffen enough so it doesnt turn when you go straight

Amcor 3990 GPS navigation device screen backwards

If your screen is actually installed backwards take it back and exchange it for new one, but if the screen is not actually installed backwards then go into the settings screen on the gps unit and find the orientation section, this will change the display to something a little more readable to you. And as a side note some of these things look like they should be straight up and down but they actually designed to work sideways, gives you a wider view and the manufacturer a little more screen room to put more information onto the screen.
