Hi Candy; To set your resolution to Jaws specifications to the following. 1. Open the control panel. 2. Arrow down to display & press enter. 3. When display opens it will open on the Themes tab, shift tab 1 time to hear Themes tab. 4. You can control + tab, until you land on Settings tab, or right arrow to Settings tab, & press enter. 5. Now tab, I believe 3 times, & you should hear, Screen Resolution, left right slider. This number should be 1024 by 768 pixels. If your setting is not that, arrow up or down until you find the correct setting. 6. Tab to apply, press spacebar, & say yes to the changes if changes were made.
Hope this helps. Take care.

It wouldn't work at all and then my husband opened it and vacumedthe inside. It does come on now. In fact, I am writing this email on it. The problem is this. The monitor does not come on, and the problem is not exactly in the monitor per say. When I burn a CD or do things like that, I try to use my jaws curser, and all jaws says is blank blank. There are certain files that I can't read such as my notepad files. When I first got the computer to come on, jaws said something like the resolution is very low and it said to click this balloon, but we can't see any balloon. Any suggestions? One thing for sure, I can't make this computer any worse than it is.
