The ability to rotate the screen image is a feature of your video

card, to help it work with monitors that rotate to portrait

orientation. Almost certainly the cat pressed Ctrl-Alt, and some arrow

key.

Rotate it back using those keys.

ctrl-alt-up arrow or monitor buttons?

Hold down the Ctrl & Alt keys and use the arrow keys to rotate it back.

Depending on your computer's graphics card, these may be alternative options.

Right click on the Desktop | Graphic Options | Rotation.

Right click on the Desktop | Screen Resolution | Orientation.

I have a HP desktop, with the same problem.  Solutions not working....
