Display Upside-down?
Hello everyone!
As I type, my monitor is sitting upside down infront of me because earlier this evening(well..its 45 mins into tomorow, I mean today) I was installing a game on the comp, it froze up on me, I ran my hand across the bottom of the keyboard in hopes of a response(none of the keys were working) then suddenly as I did that the screen went black, and then re-appeared with everything upside down.(sorry for the run-on scentence) I managed to uninstall the game upside down and then decided it might be easier if I flip the monitor. I have spent the past 45 mins trying to fix the problem but nothing is working. I also tried a system restore(restores the system to its condition at a later date) and that managed to do.......Nothing. ANY help is appreciated! Thanks! Chris

Upside-Down Display In Windows XP
Within Windows XP, certain video drivers or graphics card chipsets supporting 180 degree screen rotation can cause the Windows XP display to be presented upside down. This can be (but is not always) tied to lowering the screen resolution in some accessibility programs. To revert to a right-side up display, hold down the CTRL, ALT and UP (arrow) keys. Another option is to contact Microsoft for a fix. See the Microsoft Knowledge Base for more information.

Without more info, it is tough to suggest, but I'm guessing that it is an LCD monitor with a mode to invert the display for use when mounting it "upside down". Go through all the options on the monitor's menus - which you may have already tried.

YES! Thank-you Brad! I would offer to take you for lunch for that but, theres a little bit of a distance factor
 Matt, I was starting to think about mounting it to the shelf 6" above the screen, lol. Thank-you too! Chris
