My monitor screen is sideways! I have tried numerous attemps. Control Panel
go setting to everything. Everything I do just changes the look of the screen
but it doesn't make it go straight. It is so bad that I had to turn my
monitor sideways so I can work on my computer without my neck hurting. I
tried doing a monitor run and it says it can't because my windSAPI.DLL is not
found or something.

It would be a big help if you would say what video card you have. My own has
a display setting that says rotation but it isn't the same for all graphics
cards.

Try holding down the Ctrl and Shift keys and using the arrow keys to rotate
the image.
