I own a Gateway CX210X Tablet PC and all of the sudden I can't go from
Landscape mode to Portrait. I keep getting the following message "The
setting you requested cannot be supported. Open Display, in Control Panel,
adjust the settings, andthen try to change orientation again."

Nothing seems to work. Of course Gateways crackerjack team of support folk
say to just restore to original factory and deal with all the reloading.

I have tried reloading the video drivers and the button drivers. Nothing
helps.

Ideas?

Have you let MS Automatic Updates have its
way with your machine?

If so, roll back to a point where you remember
that things used to work. New updates occasionally
break things. I would personally suspect .NET
Framework updates - lots of the Tablet "features"
depend on .NET.

Thanks and yes I did let my guard down and was violated..... I did attempt
to go back before the last Frameworks updated and it did not work.

You might have to go back further than just the
last update...

Not something you're looking forward to, I am sure.

I had the same thing happen and solved it by updating my display drivers.
