There is an article about this on the GW web site. I can't remember what the
number is.

Hi Scot,
In My sys tray, there's a button called (Intel R graphics media
excelerator driver) Is this the option you were refering too? I'm
actually typing this on my old xp machine at the moment, as I'm I'm i
the process of rearranging my home office. But as soon as I get the 8.1
system up and running, I'll try your suggestion and get back to you and
the other listers and let you know what happened. By the way, they gave
me Mcafee as my virus protection software. Is this program accessible
with Window-Eyes? Once everything is up and running, I'll be using it
with Window-Eyes 8.4.

I just did something like that today.
What you would want to do is this.
1: to fix the problem right away,
hit control alt up arrow and that should straighten it up.
Then you want to go to your sys tray and click Intel r graphics.
Then click graphics options.
Arrow down to hotkeys and hit Right arrow to open it.
Click enter on disable.
There you should have it.
Let me/us know if that helps.

Hello fellow Window-Eyes users:
I just received my brand-new HP desktop computer running Windows 8.1.
As it sometimes happens when we get new computers, when we install
Window-Eyes and try to adjust speech parameters using the control, alt
and arrow keys for the first time, instead of adjusting Window-Eyes's
speech, it ends up rotating the screen.. You know, where the screen
flips upside down, sideways ETC. Why anyone would want their computer
screen to do that is beyond me. But anyway, I've heard that there's a
way to stop this from happening. It has something to do with the mouse
settings I think. Its been quite a while since I've had to turn this
feature off, so if any of you have ever had to do it, could you tell
me
how to prevent my screen from rotating every time I press the control
alt and arrow keys? Its possible that the tech guy already turned it
off for me, but in case he didn't, I'd like to know how to turn this
rotating thing off. Is it something that we as screen reader users can
do ourselves? or does it require technical knowhow. Thanks.
