from here select the Intel(R) graphics media accerlator tab and press graphics properties this brings up the intel graphics media accelrator panel.

on the left side select the display driver tab and thats got your rotation controls on it.

you may not have to goto all this hassle if you look in the system tray next to the clock there might be a small icon of a generic monitor or a blue tile leaning to the left with an asterix in it, that will bring up the same panel (or it did in mine when i turned that particualr system tray icon back on again)

if you need it I'll take some screenshots of the process.

your milage may vary.

hey dave you lost me half way through so i thought i would check the other posts first

Yet another example of what a big improvement Vista is over XP.

Seriously though, even though I've never tried it on Vista, I had been led to believe that it was a feature built into most video cards rather than a Windows feature. I don't know whether that is true or not.

Do you have an unusual video card?

Did you try Ctr+Alt + the other arrow keys?

You don't need to get it to work on Vista.

You have a solution of your own.
