Help! Have touched something on the keyboard I think and the screen is all there but upside down! Does anyone know what I have done and, more importantly, how I can put it back the right way up?

Thanks

CTRL + ALT and the arrow keys.
Hold down the Ctrl and Alt keys together and, keeping them held, press the Up arrow key.

On some systems, you may need to hold Ctrl, Alt and Shift, and press the Down arrow key.

Thank you Chuck & Mark - knew it would be something simple!
A search in Google for "Windows Upside Down" would have found the answer.
Why is such a useless feature designed anyway? All it does is casue problems to those who accidentally catch it.
it's for Australians, squarebear
Ack! Silly me
HaHaHa This happened to me! I was on my lap top and my dog came and plonked his head on the keys and gave me those puppy dog eyes. Then when I looked at the screen it was up side down !! I tried everything but nothing worked and I knew it would be something simple cos I saw it happen - anyway I resolved to working the rest of the day with paper and pen - When My son came home from school - he turned it back around for me and just raised his eyes sky-ward - older people can be so dumb sometimes!! Lol
I have never been able to get that feature to work on my PC. XP Home + SP3
I think it's to do with the graphics card you have.
