Hi Vincent, Try this assuming you have Windows 7 or 8; 1. Go onto the Windows desktop and make sure that nothing is pre-selected. 2. Press the application key or Shift + F10. 3. Up arrow to Personalise and press the enter key. 4. Now tab over till you come to "Display" and press the enter key. 5. Now tab over to "Resolution" and press the enter key. 6. Tab around in resolution and see if there is a small listbox with the different orientation for your monitor in it, if this list doesn't exist in resolution then tab to "Advanced options" and when in advanced options press keys "Control + tab" till you get to the "Monitor page". 7. In here tab around and you should find the list of different orientations available for the laptop monitor, use arrow keys to set it to "Landscape". 8. Tab to the OK and press spacebar then tab to OK again and press the spacebar. 9. Use alt + F4" to close out to the desktop and it should be done.
