How can I invert the screen on Windows XP? Not rotate, but flip/invert horizontally? I want the text, and everything else on the screen, to go from right to left.

Could you please explain why you need something like this? Other users might have a better way to achieve the same result, something you haven't thought of? – EvilChookie Sep 10 '09 at 19:22

Try using the video card drivers. I've used this option from the nVidia and Intel video cards settings, but they're different from one manufacturer to the other.

Edit: for an nVidia card you could try NVRotate (it should come with the video card driver). If this doesn't work, just try iRotate; it's a free, very small (125KB) app that does what you need.

Try the suggestion made in my edit. Hope this actually helps :) – alex Aug 29 '09 at 10:27

Use a screen rotation utility, such as http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Video-Tweak/iRotate.shtml.
Your video driver must have the required capacity for this (but most now do).

Ctrl-Alt-[Up Arrow], if your video card supports it.
