Correct...CTRL + ALT + UP will fix the problem.

I too discovered this shortcut by accident, since then I've been turning all the displays upside down on every computer in reach and silently laughing at my colleagues' bewildered looks.

i did it once too. i called the helpdesk (since it was a work computer) and they told me how to fix it right away. i was shocked that they actually proved themselves useful. i think they have actually gotten a lot better since they were outsourced to india.

maybe it depends on your computer? i have a thinkpad and it works when it is docked or when i use it at home.

edit:
so i just tried 3 other computers at work and it only works on mine. i am thinking maybe i accidentally enabled this "feature" the first time it happened?

That happened to me at work, still don't know what keys I hit to make it turn sideways, don't wanna know. But the fix for me was to right click on the desktop and select the graphics driver menu option that allowed me to switch it back.
