Hi, I'm looking for a way to flip (mirror) my screen. That is flipping it, not rotating it.
I'm using a laptop with windows xp and a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GTX graphics card.
Hope anybody out there have a solution for me!

Sorry EmilMeiton, bad news :(
I got this wrong. I've been in touch with the person you I worked with when making a mirror image display and it was a hardware solution that we ended up using, (inverting the signal output) + it was in a CRT whare it is apparently easier to do it. nView won't handle it and not aware of any software that does. The inverter circuit was apparently very complicated (I'm no electrician!) so I don't think there's any way you can do it with your laptop screen.
alberto's option above is for screen rotation but either with an integrated card driven by XP or where a hot key has been configured.
The nVidia manuals use "flip" all the time but actually mean rotate & also when they use the term "mirror" image they mean "identical" image on another screen.
I'm afraid the correct answer is it can't be done unless you can find someone willing to build the electonics for you and even then it seems it may not work with an LCD display.
Sorry again to get your hopes up.
M :o)
Ok. Thanks for the try :)
Then my biggest chanse lie in finding or making some kind of program that flips the screen for me.., If it's even possible without losing a great deal of framerate I don't know =/
Btw, I'm not going to project it to my laptop screen instead I'm probably going to use a secondary flat type screen. Still being LCD so I guess it won't help though.

top/bottom or left/right?
There is an option in nView to flip the image, not sure if it will allow you to do it on your laptop screen though but you can certainly use it on the VGA output.
