Currently Ctrl + Shift + Arrow keys changes the orientation of my screen! Apparently it can highlight text, but I don't know how to get that functionality. How do I get it to stop changing the orientation of my screen and start highlighting text?

Windows by itself can not control your video display in such a way.
Screen orientation change is controlled by display drivers.
Easiest way to check/disable this is to:
[1a] Go to your Control Panel -> Display -> Change display settings
[1b] Or right click empty space on your Desktop -> select Screen resolution
[2] Click Advanced settings
Now click on the tab for your graphic card, you'll notice it by a looong name.
It will have something like 'AMD Control Center', 'Intel Graphic Driver' 'Catalyst Control' or similar.
Now there should be A LOT of options, but the one you need is the one that deals with Hot Keys.
For every graphic card manufacturer it's in a different place, but the option is there.
Find it and disable the hotkeys. If it still doesn't work, go back and edit hotkeys to something else.
For example - CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+F11.
Let me know how it goes :-)
