Question Screen flipping
Yesterday i was in college in class. One girl accidentally pressed CTRL+Alt+Up Arrow and her screen with Excel flipped upside down. It was so much fun. We all wanted to play a joke at home or at work, but it did not work there. I believe there should be some special program installed. Does anyone know which one? I would love to try it on my friends. Thank you.

I believe this would be a feature of the video card, if yours doesn't support
this feature then it won't work.

Have a look in Display Properties->Settings tab->Advanced, if your card has
the feature you should find some settings in there.

I have a Dell monitor with a built-in Intel graphics card, and these instructions are probably similar for most built-in video cards. I first had to go to the advanced display settings, open up the graphics properties under "Intel Extreme Graphics 2," go to the rotation tab, enable rotation, go to the hot keys tabs, and *finally* assign the hot keys.
