If you click "ctrl+alt+down arrow" you will find your computer screen different than usual.

Try this now to have fun.

To go back in previous press "ctrl+alt+up arrow"

It depends on what video card you have and if you installed the "hot keys" for the card controls.

Nice buddy!

**dailyglobal** · 11-22-2009, 10:38 PM

It should work on any pc. I tried on several, on all of them it worked.

Like chris said, it depends on the graphics card and software. On windows 7 with my ati 4850 (out of the box) it does nothing.

And were they all in the same "corporate" environment?

I have two PCs and a laptop within reach and it does nothing at all.

It doesn't work and I believe with what chris posted above.

**Breitlingrep** · 11-23-2009, 09:10 AM

I tried at my office Dell pc, It worked and my home clone pc as well. It worked fine.

Hey,

I knew this trick but before you do it make sure that it support in your PC or not. This can be risky. Like, once one of my colleague used this Hot Keys but unfortunately nothing happened and his PC also stopped working. He had to loose all his data and OS from his C drive.

Thanks,
James<removed>

So something did happen then!

Is that a technical phrase in computer support?
