Customizing for a Specific Operating System

There are many ways you can customize the appearance and behavior of Windows or Microsoft® Windows NT™ to accommodate varying vision and motor abilities without requiring any additional software or hardware. These customizations include adjusting the operating system's appearance, as well as the behavior of the mouse and keyboard. The specific methods available depend on which operating system you are using. Application notes are available describing the specific methods available for each operating system.
