    A friends child was playing on the pc and left it with the screen upside down and the mouse buttons reversed.

    Anyone seen this and how did you correct it?


    ps, I know how the screen was turned over(ctl alt down arrow) but how did the mouse get reversed?

    Cheers Rossco, the screen got flipped by holding down Control, ALT and pressing the down arrow(found that by googling it).
    Was wondering how the mouse got reversed though, can't find anything on it.

    I just hit control+alt+ the sideways arrow and my screen flew right off the r/h side of the desk and broke on the floor.
    I can't find all of the missing pixels.


    Kids, do NOT try this at home.
    Keystrokes are for professionals.

    Edit: Do I have glaucoma or are there snowflakes falling down my screen?
