Possible to rotate screen upside-down?

[widdgetz]

Is it possible to rotate the XP Pro Screen 180 degrees? I have downloaded the programs like "Bad Day" which only flip the screen, so if it were looked at from upside-down, it would read backwards.

What I want to be able to do is type information or work on a web site or graphic image with my laptop monitor facing me, hit a hotkey to flip the screen, then open the screen down towards the table so that they can see it. That way I don't have to have them hovering over my shoulder, and do not have to turn the laptop around to face the again and again.

For this use, it would be handy, but not mandatory, if the screen were still active when flipped upside down (the cheap programs take a screenshot and flip, I believe) so I could change things.

Running ATI Radeon 9000, P4 2.66 Ghz, XP Pro.
Thanks!

Also, don't mean to inflate anybody's bubbles, but I can do the exact effect moderately quickly with Paint Shop Pro and the prt sc button, but I would prefer something instant, accessed by hotkey.

Some graphics drivers give 90/180/270 degree options. The OmegaRadeon drivers, for example.

Any suggestions on how to find if mine does?
