Changing accessibility settings
Your computer can be a powerful tool, but it may be less useful to you if items on the screen are
difficult to see, or if the mouse is difficult to control. Windows has several tools that help you use
it more easily.
Using the Ease of Access Center
Use the Ease of Access Center to change several system display settings.
To use the Ease of Access Center:
1 Click (Start), Control Panel, Ease of Access, then click Ease of Access Center. The Ease
of Access Center opens.
2 In the Quick access to common tools section, click one of the following options to make
some of the most common accessibility changes to Windows:
• Start Magnifier provides a close-up view of the area near your mouse pointer.
• Start On-Screen Keyboard displays a keyboard on the screen. You can press keys on
the on-screen keyboard by clicking them with your mouse.
