To make text and items larger on desktop:
Goto Control Panel; Click on Appearance and Resolution; Click on Display; Click on Make Text and Items larger; then Click on Set Custom Text Size and follow instruction. I am a oldguy and I have set mine at 150%... just fine for me. Good Luck
New guy here, with a new tower and Windows 7 and AOL.
Can not read the small type on most things. (old guy here)
What is the trick, to making type larger, without using the magnifier?
I've been all over the unit and can not find anything that works for me.
The magnifier, makes reading more of a problem, too large.
