<p>My LCD rotates.  The software that comes with my ATI card to rotate the desktop just crashes (<em>I've uninstalled, reinstalled and rolled them back, still crashes</em>).  Is there any other way to rotate a Windows XP Desktop by 90 degree increments?  I am looking for either software or code (any language is fine.)  I know I have seen 3rd party support for this before, but I can't find it now.</p>

<p>I realize this may not be a strictly software development related question, but it is programmer productivity related.  If I can get an answer that involves how to write a program to do this, even better!</p>

My only complaint is it binds hot keys to CTRL+ALT+[arrows], so I have to close it after I rotate.
