screendisplay appear like it has made a 90° rotation.

Hello my savers! Like written above, my screen has made a 90° rotation which is most uncmfortable
as you can imagine.
Has someone got an idea how bring it back to more comfort?

Sounds like you pressed the CTRL + Alt + UP (or Down) Arrow key, keep pressing it till it goes back to normal.

1000 merci! This was indeed the probem and got quickly solved.
Do it well!

If the above doesn't work then go to Control Panel, click the downfacing black arrow head next to "control Panel" and click "Appearance and Personalisation" Then click "Display" then "Screen Resolution" then click the box "Orientation" and choose "Landscape" Then "Apply" Then OK.
That should put your screen back to normal.
EDIT:
Sorry my slow typing, we crossed but I will leave my idea in just in case it helps others with a similar problem!

OK thanks but this won't help since that was the last time i let my mother use my laptop

I would not blame your Mum to much the only reason I know the answer is because many years ago without knowing it I pressed those same keys.

On another note after that I got a monitor that was able to turn 90 degrees on it's stand, You would not believe how much nicer web pages look when a monitor is turned 90 degrees

But how did you manage to use your mouse? Mine was completely going crazy! Left made the cursor go down, down made it go right! waouh!

You will have to rotate your monitor your brain is hardwired to move the mouse in the direction it wants the cursor to go. Windows thinks you have the monitor rotated so the top of the screen is now to your right and moving the mouse up will send the cursor to the right. It's very confusing if your monitor is not oriented the way Windows thinks it is.

Look at post 6 pictures again

Well but even making a chesttorsion to look at the screen the right way and have the mouse just as usual, the mouse did not send the cursor the coherent way. But anyway this tragical problem is over and i won't sleep worse because i don't understand it
completely! It was fun solving it!

But your problem is you are, I think, using a laptop and the screen on that can only be landscape unless you physically hold the compleate laptop up and turn it 90 degrees clockwise! But that requires two hands so what are you going to move the mouse with (Answers please in a sealed brown envelope!!!)

I did that with my laptop once, I used a USB keyboard and mouse instead of the laptop keyboard mouse. The reason I did was because the laptop needed a good cleaning and I'm a procrastinator, I will usually waste time thinking of ways not to do something.

 

[LIEVRE]

I am a brilliant procrastinator too. I give up that it was the real initial cause of my problem and not my mum being clumsy, my lapotop keyboard was dirty as usual and she was willing to clean it! You unmasked me lol.
