Screen view view has been changed by a seven year old from landfscape to portrait how do we change it back

If you're saying the pc image is sideways on the monitor, try holding down 'Alt-gr' key (right of space bar) and pressing the arrow up key.

If on the other hand you have black bars down the left and right of screen, you may achieve full screen by changing the aspect ratio key on the TV remote.
Otherwise you'll need to state which operating system (Windows) you're using, to help you further.

I know how inconvenient working on your laptop the image in it is upside down. But don't worry I will help you with this concern.

I have a video tutorial that will walk you through on how to correct it or fix it.

Just click the link VideoTutorial so that you will directed on the video tutorial page. Once you get there, please wait to load the video completely, it takes quite while.
But if you want a written walk through, not a problem I will provide that.

Laptops are very customizable. There is a very handy technique that has been a feature on laptops for many years but is still not widely known. It comes in handy for a lot of reasons. For anyone who wants to relax and watch a movie on their laptop or read an ebook, the ability to rotate their laptop's screen from vertical to horizontal makes these activities so much easier. This explanation applies to Windows Vista and Windows 7.

1. Hold down the "Ctrl" and "Alt" keys and press the "Left Arrow" key. This will rotate your laptop screen view. Return to the standard screen orientation by holding down the "Ctrl" and "Alt" keys together and pressing the "Up Arrow" key. If you were unable to rotate your screen with "Ctrl + Alt + Left," go to step 2.

2. Right-click on the laptop's desktop and select "Personalize."

3. Find the "See Also" menu on the left side of the screen and click "Display."

4. Click on "Change Display Settings" and choose "Orientation" from the drop-down menu.

5. Choose from "Landscape," "Portrait," "Landscape (Flipped)," and "Portrait (Flipped)" from the box that appears. "Landscape" is the standard view. "Portrait" changes the view to sideways, leaning to the left. "Landscape (Flipped)" shows a sideways view leaning to the right. "Portrait (Flipped)" turns the screen upside down.

6.Click "Apply" and then click "OK." Your screen orientation is set to whatever version you like.

Proceed to play jokes on your friends by flipping their computer screens when they are not looking, then tell them "That's not good, dude."


I hope you find it very helpful. Thank you for using fixya.

Hi and welcome to fixya!

To change the view of your screen, just simply press alt + ctrl + the arrow keys. It will "turn" your screen. Just stop when you finally have the view that you want.

This will certainly help.

Some video cards support screen rotation. You may have accomplished this by pressing CTRL + ALT + Left Arrow. To change it back simply press CTRL + ALT + Up Arrow. If this does not work then try restarting. If that does not work you may have to change your view from Landscape to Portrait in you video card software program. If it is an Nvidia card then open display properties>>Settings>>nvrotate.

press and hold ctrl + alt key + up arrow key. this will put your computer back to lanscape.

Hi There,
on most monitors, no you cannot view the screen on portrait.

There are some larger, wide screen monitors that I have seen that allow you to twist and see the screen and picture vertical.

You have to get a monitor specifically to do this in the specs of the monitor.

Here is a Google search on models that you can do this with.

Right click on the desktop and you should get a drop down box that includes Graphics Options. In there you can change the Rotation for your display.

Click Start -> Settings, enter the System tab and scroll down to Screen. Once you open screen changing your orientation to portrait.

Go to:

Start

Settings

System

Screen

Change it to 'Portrait'
