There I was this morning, working on my ms, when suddenly my screen flipped.
It went from horizontal to vertical. Not just Word, but the whole screen, background, icons, start panel, everything. I restarted it, but it came back the same way: vertical. I decided to come to tech help to ask you guys for emergency help, but I had no internet connection. I wanted to call Sony tech help, but they
don't open till 8.am (I write this at 7.30).
So I had to figure out things myself. I went to the control panel but found no solution there. I fiddled around a bit more, and found something to do with maintenance, which gave a list of problems my system had had over the time I've had it, and under a heading called Maintenance I saw that there had been a problem with my Malware this am at 6.26, which is about the time this stuff happened. But it didn't give any advice on how to solve it.
Finally, through trial and error, I found the page where you can reset the system, and I set it back to yesterday, and that solved the problem. YAY!
And an internet connection! Double YAY!
I just wish I knew what happened, what caused it, and why. AFter that I couldn't go back to writing again so here I am!
