We bought this screen on the basis that it would rotate to portrait view. When connected, we installed the driver and went to install the Magic Rotate software. However, as we have a machine with Vista, had to download the Vista version. When we went to install it, the menu to rotate came up, allowed us to select it but nothing happened. After reinstalling the driver, uninstalling and reinstalling the Magic Rotate software and calling Samsung, it still doesn't work.
We have now been told by Samsung that the Video Card Driver in the monitor may not be compatible with the Magic Rotate Software. Samsung technical support, however, could not tell me what video card was in their monitor and the retailer doesn't have that information either.
Can anyone help with:
- finding out what the specs of the video card in the monitor are; or
- how to get the Magic Rotate software to work!!
- If you need clarification, ask it in the comment box above.
- Better answers use proper spelling and grammar.
- Provide details, support with references or personal experience.

Go to system preferences > displays, then there's an option to rotate the display. You'll also need the corresponding cable to connect it. Enjoy the mac!
According to the manual, rotation adjustment is done via Samsung's Magic Rotation software that came on the installation disk:

There will be buttons on the front of the monitor where you can change the position of the screen, you could also do this in the display driver on your macbook although I couldnt tell you exactly how on that particular mac, pretty sure the menu onthe monitor will get it sorted though.
You ought to be able to bring up the video card settings from your control panel and change it there. For instance I have a nVidia graphics card. When I bring up the settings panel it offers me the opportunity to change the rotation there.
Hi...there!
Sure you can... just go to your toolbars bottom R/H side and look for a Graphic Card settings for example ( Nvidia or ATI settings) Then right click and look for a rotation settings from there just followed the settings... To adjust the display, open your on screen display on your LCD monitor and look for Auto Adjust by using (- +) buttons... Have a nice day!
By rotating the display, users can use it to view their subject when taking low-angle, high-angle, and a wide range of other shots. When closed, the multi-swing display also ensures carefree portability by protecting both the lens and the LCD screen. The IR-500 is the first Olympus camera to feature a multi-swing display with 360° rotation capability. It is especially useful in Self Portrait Shooting. The multi-swing display's 360° rotation capability makes it easy to shoot self-portraits as well as other people and scenery. Users can view themselves on the LCD screen while shooting, and use the camera's Self Portrait mode to ensure optimum exposures.
They mean the Video Card that you are using in your PC.
Right Click My Computer > Properties > Device Manager > Display Adapters.
