Help PC Problem.

Tayto.

The screen on my laptop has turned upside down.
Everything is the wrong way round. I have to move the mouse up to get the cursor to move down.

I've turned it off and on a few times now and that didn't work.

Any ideas?

Mine was typing backwards earlier but restarting it fixed it!! Tayto, is there a 'orientation' setting? I know you can change it for if you write a lot of letters... hold on, I'll have a lookie and get back to you.

You're welcome Tayto, hope it works. I often do it when I'm hitting Ctlr+Alt+delete and hit the wrong one instead

Yes BB. Just did it now. Thank God, cos it's not my laptop. I only have the use of it for a while.
It wasn't actually a pc problem you helped me with but a certain Santa pic that wouldn't work for me.

I'm glad it worked for you.

But my memory has let me down once again because I just can't recall anything about a santa pic.

Glad you got it sorted Tayto. I was about to suggest you post in the 'help' thread but obviously you don't need to now.

We're lucky that there are several HM's who are quite au-fait with how to sort out computer problems and who are happy to help.

No worries BB. His bum wouldn't wiggle for me but you got it to work.

Thanks Hyacinth. I was in an awful panic. I knew it was something simple but because I couldn't navigate the cursor properly I thought I was in bother.

I knew someone here would help me out. Bless you all.

Don't you just. I'd say it happened when my son was carrying it with the top closed down.
All's well that ends well.
