help to make screen eaiser to read for someone with poor vision

[Guest]

when windows xp was first loaded on my computer the fonts and all of the icons were larger and eaiser to read. After I shut down the computer everything is so small I have a hard time seeing. I went to my comptuer and changed setting to extra large fonts and apply but no change. Any Help

Try Right clicking on the desktop. Choose Prperties. then
click on the settings tab. You can adjust the screen
resolution from there. The lower the resolution, the
larger your icons will be.

Try tinkering with Accessibility Options in Control Panel and see if you can
find something there to make it easier to read.

Accessibility Wizard
[[The Accessibility Wizard guides you through the process of customizing
your computer with tools designed to help meet your vision, hearing, or
mobility needs. Accessibility options (such as StickyKeys, ShowSounds, and
Mousekeys) help users with disabilities to make full use of the computer.
Some of the options, such as MouseKeys, may be of interest to all users.
Once the Accessibility tools are set up, they can be accessed through
Control Panel and the Accessibility menu.

Open the Accessibility Wizard.
Notes
To open the Accessibility Wizard, click Start, point to Programs, point to
Accessories, point to Accessibility, and then click Accessibility Wizard.
The accessibility tools that ship with Windows are intended to provide a
minimum level of functionality for users with special needs. Most users with
disabilities will need utility programs with more advanced functionality for
daily use. ]]
