My laptop screen display is now sideways, how do I fix this?

We have an Asus laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium. My fiancé was roughhousing with the dog and rolled over the keyboard. The screen display immediately went sideways! How do we fix this? Thank you.

    A lot of laptops have shortcuts that switch the screen like this. try pressing ctrl+alt+up arrow key. Some laptops even have a key on the screen or side of the case. It would help a little more if i knew exactly what model Asus you had if that doesn't work look in your display settings, there should be a screen orientation setting that you can change. you can access the display settings by right clicking and selecting either screen resolution or personalize. Hope this helps.

    Thank you. I stepped away from my computer and my 2 year niece managed to switch my screen. She said "it was a accident". Too cute.
