Disable screen orientation hot keys in windows 8 (ctrl alt arrow)

12

I want to disable the screen orientation hot keys. I have tried looking in the NVIDIA control panel, but I have not found the option in there yet.

Details:

  • I am using an Asus Zenbook running windows 8.
  • My computer runs both the intelHD graphics that is integrated into the i7 proccessor and a NVIDIA 650m.

One option is to disable the Intel(R) HD Graphics Control Panel Service altogether. Or don't have it be started automatically.

The screen orientation keys are probably provided and controlled by the Intel HD driver (it's been a standard feature of Intel video drivers for years now).

Use the Intel HD utility to disable them:

2Fantastic, I thought the graphics would have been controlled by the NVIDIA control panel. – Mike Rylander – 2013-05-07T18:49:11.507
