The kid may also have pressed the screen controls on the front of the monitor too?
45 degrees sounds like an odd angle to be computer controlled... And it was vertically and horizontally shrunk too.
Does sound like he/she has mussed the monitor settings up to me...
Hope this helps. Best of luck.....

thats exactly why i don't like kids. You where a kid once, maybe your father should have cut his ball bag to stop you from coming out!

i hate kids. with a passion. i dont midn them if they are silent and smile, but if they are loud, agressive and basically distract me from whatever i do, i get angry. and if for whatever reason some of you dislike my opinion, you should mvoe to china or iran, where personal opinions are shut down and everybody has to believe the same. because if you think you can act like a child, attack me for not liking kids, and telling me that there is only one right, namely yours, youre definately wrong in a free country, where everybody is allowed to have an opinion...
oh and BTW: i dont care anyway...

"Anyone who hates children and dogs can't be all bad.", or what? A google search reveals that its a quote by W.C.Fields, but the wikiquote-page apparently knows otherwise)To be honest, I often get the impression people say these things, you know, that they hate children, mainly because they want to seem incredibly badass. It seems to be a "cool" thing to do, but its really not natural to do so, no? So here is my question: How come? I mean, there has to be reason why you hate children, right? Is it because each and every child in the world came to your house and you had to change their diapers? (Because, to be fair, that WOULD be a very good reason). Or is it because that one day, a child kind of screamed a little (but it might have been a middle-aged man for all you know)? Or is there really no reason other than it sounds incredibly badass to say things like "Yeah, I hate children"? :P Oh, wait! if they are loud, agressive and basically distract me from whatever i do In honesty, this sounds more like obnoxious teenagers (and in some ways, young adults OH SNAP THATS MY AGE) to me, which are very different in many ways. Plus, not too long and you can add alcohol to the mix for the ultimate douchebag! In case you use the term "children" for anyone aged eighteen (twenty-one?) and lower, I apologize for this now useless post. DISCLAIMER: I used to say that I hate children too, but I'm confident that the above explains it pretty well. Nowadays, I don't hate them, I guess I'm indifferent? There HAVE to be parents on this board. Please come and help me when these people try to tear me to shreds with their arguments . You know, the typical stuff. Like; "You will understand once you have children", or "when they smile at you, its the best feeling in the world". or whatever you guys say all the time. NOW is the time to say it! Be proud and tell the world!EDIT: Also: Apology to Eagelina, for, uhm, not helping? Sorry. This is not my fault! It's my incredibly strong sense of justice that made me post this. Some day, people you love will be rescued thanks to my incredibly useful skill (which was just displayed here), then, all will be forgiven. For now, i ask you to, I don't know, say things like "Gosh, whenever I look in the eyes of my sweetheart, which is my daughter, I even forget the hate and anger I felt when some user, I don't know, something-with-computers, Crash fifteen or whatever posted a long rant in my thread". Aaaaah, that would be a great reply! You can just copy&paste it from here and reply with it.

i dont midn them if they are silent and smile, but if they are loud, agressive and basically distract me from whatever i do, i get angry. same here. you know that situation? you go in a café, want to enjoy your extra strong coffee while reading a good book and/or smoking a cigarette. but no, there always has to be a crybaby.(as long as i have my trusty mp3-player with me, they don't bother me at all.) or that one annoying child that runs around and makes the waitress tumble and spill the beverages she's carrying over your lap (really happened to me once. getting hot tea spilt over your lap isn't exactly my idea of an awesome afternoon) or those annoying loud teenagers who think they have to scream to each other to communicate and act rude all the time. see, i'm a very peaceloving character. as long as everything's calm, i'm calm as well. but may god help you if you actually manage to piss me off. which doesn't happen too often. back to topic folks. about that problem: never heard of spinning your screen for 45 degrees via your keyboard... unless you use the graphics card driver or some program like that. i'd have a look at that first if i were you.
