Before rotating the monitor, you should set-up your computer to rotate the image. 
Rotating the image may require special rotati on software or you may find that your

the Graphic Properties setting on your comput er to see if this feature is available. 
Try these steps to check if image rota tion is available on your computer. 
1.   Right-click on the desktop and click  Properties. 
2.   Select the  Settings tab and click  Advanced. 
3.   If you have ATI, select the  Rotation tab and set the preferred rotation. If you have 
nVidia, click the  nVidia tab, in the left-hand column select  NVRotate, and then 
select the preferred rotation. If you have Intel, select the  Intel graphics tab, click 
Graphic Properties , select the Rotation tab, and then set the preferred rotation. 
Check with the manufacturer of your comput er to see if graphic drivers with image 
rotation can be downloaded from their support website.
