How do I configure my computer to display upsidedown?

(1/2) > >>

I have a 3 sided cocktail table and I want the display to be rotated 180 degrees.  I do not have a graphics card so when I go to display properties -> settings -> advanced there is no rotate option...  Any ideas? 

I'd also be open to a solution rotating Gamelauncher 180 degrees and then all of the horizontal games in MAME..

Thanks!!

For a golbal solution.... buy a video card that does support rotation. 

both gamelauncher and mame support rotation btw... doesn't help you with anything else though

javeryh:
Thanks.  So for a short term solution, how do I setup Gamelauncher to rotate 180 degrees and launch horizontal games in MAME 180 degrees too?

Thanks a lot.

I have a cotail table and tried having windows rotated via good video cards and 3rd party software.

Worked great for windows

I gave up on the idea as a few mame games got 'upset' having something in the background rotate them rather than mame itself.

I found that the if you left windows alone and use a FE that rotates 'natively' (there are a few)  and use the options on mame to rotate the games the setup was much happier.

Obvioulsy I hide Windows so you don't notice its not rotated

Can I still use Gamelauncher?

Also, how do I rotate a game 180 degrees?  I know -ror and -rol rotate 90 degrees but I can't seem to find the command to rotate 180 degrees?  I also can -flipx and -flipy but not rotate 180!

Any help would be great.
