HIGH CONTRAST COLOR SCHEMES

If you find yourself straining to see what's on your computer screen, you may want to try one of Windows 95's high-contrast color schemes. You can select from three sizes of white-on-black or black-on-white.

Right-click the desktop and select Properties. Click the Appearance tab, and in the dropdown list under Scheme, select any of the High Contrast schemes. A preview appears in the top half of the dialog box.

Don't care for the black-and-white look? If larger text is all you need, select any of the four color schemes followed by "(Large)." Regardless of your choice, when you find a scheme you like, click OK to make it stick.
