How to rotate desktop by 90 degrees ?

I don't know how it but since an hour ago my desktop is rotate by 90 degrees. The Taskbar is on the right border
and I have to turn my head vertically to read all menus and text lines.

The problem is: I don't know how I did this. I assume it was a speical key combination I pressed.
But which ?

How do I rotate it back?

David

Check the documentation for your graphics adapter.

Not a key combo--it's a display properties setting. Look for an icon for your
video card in the lower right corner Notification Area. Right click on it to
adjust. If you don't have the icon, go to Display Properties, Settings,
Advanced, Rotation.

Or try control-alt and one of the arrow keys at the same time.
