Please don't yell at us. We can hear you if you type normally, in mixed
case.

It's not a Vista issue. 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.

To put it mildly, these effects are Vista issue and you need appropriate
video cards to enable them. I can only hope whatever the future releases will
provide some of the fabulous effects enabled. But at the moment we are short
of any enterprising effects in Vista and its dull.

No, these effects are features of particular video cards and their drivers.
It's not Vista that provide them at all.

I have tried Vista's new Aero snap feature and I am pleased with it. Even
though its a Beta version it works very well.
