When I try to reorient the screen for use as a tablet I continue to get a message that the action cannot be done because of the settings in my "Display" settings. I have tried [I think] every way there is to change those settings, but nothing works. Everything else works fine, but it is the wrong angle to use the stylus. Any suggestions appreciated.

My cat stepped on the keyboard and changed the orientation of the screen, and I couldn't figure out how to undo it until I found this - while reading sideways! Mousing was actually the hardest part... Thanks for your post!

My geeky friend and you just saved my sanity. I inadvertently rotated my display 90 degrees and found a complicated way to fix it, but couldn't get there from here, as they say. Your fix WORKED.
