Publication Date:

Article discusses a no-cost solution for customizing the mouse for computer users with low vision. The guide provides instructions for controlling features on the mouse and changing the size, color, shape, and look of the mouse pointer. Microsoft Windows XP has advanced features for mouse customization, so all instructions are based on this operating system. Many of the same features are also available in Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows 98 operating systems. Features discussed that are only found in Windows XP are noted.
