Starting and Using the Accessibility Wizard

The Accessibility Wizard groups accessibility features in categories designed to help people with visual, hearing, or mobility impairments. A fourth option helps network administrators set accessibility options for many computers and/or for more than one user on one computer.

How to Use the Accessibility Wizard: The Accessibility Wizard will step you through several pages that enable you to set the accessibility options you want. To use the wizard, you must first select the text size you are most comfortable reading. Then you select from among the four options. Regardless of which options you choose, you must work through the wizard from the beginning. Once you have selected a category, you will see only those pages that relate to the type of disability-or disabilities-you have selected. Or, you may see only the pages for administrative options. Note: If Accessibility Wizard does not appear on the Programs menu or one of its submenus, you will need to install Accessibility Options. If you installed Windows 98 with a compact disc, you will be prompted to insert it into your computer.

Restoring Default Settings You can restore the default settings on the Set Wizard Options page by clicking the Restore Default Settings button or by pressing ALT+R.
