I am new to this but I am having a bit of trouble. I pushed, who knows what
buttons, and all of a sudden my screen changed directions. I have been trying
for a really long time and cannot figure this thing out. Any help would be
much appreciated. Oh yeah, and it has made my mouse screwy too. Thanks

usually in display properties, there is a setting for rotation.
on many systems it is CTRL+directional arrows to rotate

Try Ctrl-Alt-Up Arrow or Ctrl-Shift-Up Arrow

The ability to rotate the screen image is a feature of your video
card, to help it work with monitors that rotate to portrait
orientation. You accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and some arrow key.
Rotate it back using those keys.
