right click desktop->Properties->Settings->Advanced->[Your graphics card name tab]-> in there look for a option that inverts the display

or if you have a display manager like the nvidia nView center running on the task bar, check in there

Hi,

can you simply drag the start bar back to the bottom?
If this doesn't work, then right click the start bar and untick lock the toolbar.
Drag the start bar back down to the bottom, and then right click >> lock the toolbar.

Hope this helps!

This is probably problem with color quality
Change it to 16bit or try some other

ibu1 u r totally wrong, its not like that there is key combination for that. I just forgot that if someone remember that pls post here

 

by: sakuya_suPosted on 2006-11-18 at 03:45:11ID: 17971127

no its simply a command(function) that inverts the display,

it might be easier for me to search for you if you can tell me what the full name of the card is..

by: ibu1Posted on 2006-11-18 at 03:54:31ID: 17971141

Sorry,
I thought the whole screen is reversed

 

by: ibu1Posted on 2006-11-18 at 03:56:57ID: 17971145

Click on the Menu bar on top and drag it back down to the bottom. Restart the computer immediately because a crash will reset it back to the top. When the computer starts up, It will default back to the bottom.

 

by: ranadastidarPosted on 2006-11-18 at 03:58:59ID: 17971148

ur suggession ll only help me if only task bar ll goes to top but its not, my entire destop including background all icons are reverse, that means if i interchange bottom and top of that monitor then it ll normalize.

 

by: ibu1Posted on 2006-11-18 at 04:04:08ID: 17971159

by: ruijietanPosted on 2006-11-18 at 04:09:39ID: 17971170

Could it be a problem with your monitor? Press the Menu button or whatever button that brings up the menu and press return settings to defult or do automatic adjustment if your monitor supports it.

 

by: sakuya_suPosted on 2006-11-18 at 04:17:31ID: 17971180

yes I think you should contact the customer support, as I said its not a popular card thus it is rather remote to think that someone here know the key off his/her head.

also, I would just try Ctrl+everything, then Alt+everything, then Ctrl+Alt+everything

 

by: ranadastidarPosted on 2006-11-18 at 04:22:53ID: 17971191

yes that i want thanks ibu1 for ur help, and sakuya_su if u dont know something then dont comment on that in that bad way. the key combination is Ctrl+Alt+uparrow
