Um. Assuming you have an NVIDIA graphics card, there should be a little nvidia icon in your system tray (next to the clock). Right-click that, and you should find an NVRotate option a few clicks deep (unfortunately, I don't have one to test at the moment).

Failing that, right-click your desktop, hit properties, go to settings and hit the Advanced button. There should be a whole heap of options under an NVidia (or other) tab there.

Hope that helps (and hope it doesn't sound like instructions to suck eggs ;)
