At home I'm running Windows XP Media Center with a 22" LCD from AOC and a
Radeon HD 3850 or something. The cheapy HD card.

Is there a way to change the orientation of things so things display
vertical rather than horizontal or is that dependant on my video card or
monitor to have that capability?

I'm playing some pinball games that would look sweet if I could temporarily
turn the monitor sideways.

I looked and it should support vertical scaling, maybe I just don't know how
to do it.

Maybe there's some other software besides just the driver I need, which
shows me more options.. which I'm downloading the full package now.

Try Display Properties, Settings Advanced, and then Accelerator driver
or the like. If the card and driver support rotation, you should find it
in there.
