I know this is not an "Office" question per se, but somehow I have caused my screen image to be inverted. How can I get it right side up?
 
There is no where near enough information here. What OS? What Graphics card? Just for starts.

Hi there.
The only time I've seen this I fixed the problem by downloading the latest graphics card driver and installing it.
 
Thanks but we have gotten it righted now. Cntrl+Alt+UpArrow did it
 
I would guess that you have a computer with an Intel integrated graphics chip?

Right-click on an empty area of desktop and choose Properties. This will open the Display Properties. Click on the Settings tab and then the Advanced button. (I'm doing this from memory - so I may be a little vague from here on). One of the tabs in the Advanced dialog will have settings for the desktop oerientation. Click on the rotate setting to get your desktop back up the correct way. Then there will also be a button to disable the shortcuts for changing desktop orientation (which I guess you must have accidentally used to get where you are).
