<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
My client has a this laptop that is virus-free and works fine. Just one issue: upon startup, the screen is rotated 90 degrees. He's quite knowledgeable and has tried everything I suggested we try in the short few minutes I had to concentrate on that problem (other, user-centered issues demanded my time).<br />
<br />
He has adapted to the problem by pressing the screen orientation button in the top row to get the screen oriented correctly. <br />
<br />
I've done the desktop-right-click drill to change the orientation, but it comes back wrong upon the next startup.<br />
<br />
Help?

Startup Dell Studio 1749 screen orientation

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
