Right cllick on the desktop > Properties > Settings > Advanced, locate
the tab for your graphics' software User Interface. I'd expect there is
an option there for controlling the image orientaion on your monitor.

You do not say which monitor and display adapter.

{from memory} Control Panel --> Display ---> Settings ---> Advanced

Look at the monitor & display adapter info, one of them will have the
ability to rotate 90 {try the display adapter}

I've had this problem in the past
