If the display has been rotated, it can normally be corrected by pushing the key combination <Ctrl> + <Alt>+ <Up Arrow>.
Image rotation is enabled by default and is activated by the default key combination <Ctrl> + <Alt> + <F1>.
Once it is activated, you can rotate the display with the additional "Hot Keys":
<Ctrl> + <Alt> + <Right Arrow>
<Ctrl> + <Alt> + <Down Arrow>
<Ctrl> + <Alt> + <Left Arrow>
<Ctrl> + <Alt> + <Up Arrow>
To disable this Hot Key Feature, remove the check from the Enable Hot Keys selection box in the Extended Graphics properties.

Boot and Rescue CDs.
If
you are involved in IT repair either for your business or just for
casual purposes (family and friends). One of your most useful tools
can be a bootable CD. Bootable CDs can either be live versions of an
operating system (Linux) or a Rescue CD (e.g. AVG rescue )
A
live CD can can be used to test to operation of various unresponsive
items of a PC such as mouse, keyboard, monitor or simply to
experiment with a new operating system.
A
Rescue CD can boot a malware infected system, scan, remove viruses,
malware, spyware, copy and delete files, modify partitions and a
whole range of system tasks.
All
the items listed below were free at the time of publication (or
possibly can be purchased from the respective companies for a nominal
fee.)
