Accessibility/Windows 98 Second Edition

About Accessibility

Accessibility tools in Microsoft^™ Windows^™ 98 Second Edition make computers more useful for people with a broad range of disabilities. The accessibility tools expand what was offered in earlier versions of Windows.  These included desktop size adjustability, high-contrast colors, special keys, and sound enhancements for the hearing impaired.

With the new accessibility features, you can:

• Use the Accessibility Wizard to set up accessibility options.
• Use the Magnifier to enlarge a portion of your screen in a different window. (Please note:  Magnifier is not a replacement for the full-featured magnifiers available from other software companies.)
• Use the New Pointers which come in three sizes, and in white and black, and in a color that changes to heighten the contrast with the background.
• Use the High Contrast Schemes that are available in greater number and variety than the color schemes in Windows 95.
