Hello everybody,

Since I shifted to Windows 8 on a laptop I cannot use the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+right/left/down, because this results in having the screen appearance upside down (or left, right, etc.).

Does anybody experience the same? Is there a solution?

Thank you in advance!
Donatella

Graphics card hot keys Jul 18, 2014

The answer to this always used to be: Right-click your desktop and click on Graphics (or similar). Disable the hotkeys.

However, as I don't have Windows 8, better to await advice from others.
