There is a knowlege base article on the screen flipping upside down and left
to right on the gwmicro page. I've forgotten its number, but you can locate
it with words like screen flip and words of that sort. It has to do with a
certain video control, and the kb article tells you how to uncheck it so you
will then get windoweyes to intercept the alt arrow keys properly.

Subject: Interesting Laptop Issue
It took two W.E. users and two interested onlookers to even define the
issue I'm about to bring up.
This is on a Dell Inspiron Seleron laptop running the standard 8.3 under
8.1 combo, but in desktop layout. (It has a numpad.)
The combinations Ctrl.-alt plus the arrows remain silent, even in Key
Describer Mode. They also flip the display around such that it can be
upside down, and there seems to be a left/right flip as well. No standard
procedure returns the control of thesekeys to W.E. Some other reading of
system functions is also impaired.
Has anybody seen this behavior? What do we need to get rid of so W.E. can
behave normally? There's nothing obvious in the start-up group.
Sure hope someone has seen and conquered this problem.
