My cat is not helping

[Joe G.]

Ok, you computer gurus, I have a problem that is kind of stupid to say the least. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium on this computer. This morning I was reading the news on line when my cat jumped on my lap and then walked on my keyboard to where she normally lays on my desk. Usually that does not cause any problems but this time it did. When I looked back at my screen the display was upside down. It still is. I booted up in safe mode and the display was right side up so there is no problem with the monitor. I have it upside down on my desk leaning on a cardboard box. Does anyone know how to turn the display over?

Try control + alt + down key.

 

[Joe G.]

Thank you. That worked.

 

[AMink]

Cool! I typed in your problem and POOF! there's the answer. Apparently there is a need to turn your screen upside down. One of the reasons was to mess with co-workers. Glad to help; now back to the computers at work... :-laf

Now why do I find this funny? Danged cats... :-laf

My fix was to turn the monitor over---but then again I'm not very computer smart

If you really want to mess with co-workers, flip the display left-to-right or upside down so they have to use a mirror to read the display.

 

[Joe G.]

I don't think you can cause a mirror image.

Ok, so how do you flip it to mess with your coworkers? :-laf

What if you don't have co-workers ???

 

[PToombs]

Do it to the wife or kids!

I have to keep that in mind my cat sometimes sits on my lap and tries to type in replies. That is usually when she gets put on the floor.

Mine is on my lap right now. Thankfully she's sleeping. Sometimes she climbs up on my arm and goes to sleep on my hand, while I'm running the mouse. The cat is whacked, fits right in around here.

1. What if YOU are the co-worker... ... ... ... ... . ?



2. My cats will sleep in the strangest places, often my arm or hand.
