Rift Orientation wrong after changing cable configuration

Hi all,

I have a GTX780 setup with 3 monitors and a rift.

I did have two monitors connected to DVI, and one monitor to HDMI. When I wanted to use the rift I simply disconnected the HDMI monitor and connected the rift.

I've now installed the 3rd monitor to displayport instead of HDMI, so that I can have the rift connected all the time. No issues with the monitors, but....

now when I go into Elite dangerous the Rift does not have a name (I see the 3 monitors as Primary, Secondary, and Teriary and the rift as a blank entry.

Worst still, the picture within ED on the rift is orientated wrongly by 90 degrees.

The rift also appears orientated wrongly in my NVidia control panel, but I'm pretty sure it already appeared oriented wrongly even in the prior setup, but ED somehow worked anyway.

Any ideas?

You should be able to rotate the view in display->screen resolution. Try out the different settings for orientation (while rift is set to extended mode).

OK yes that works thanks. First impressions are that I'm getting more frame rate issues with the 4 devices connected all at the same time, but will need to spend some more time on it to be sure.
