How to Turn on a Zoom Dell Computer
Many computer users have smaller 14- and 15-inch screens that support only low resolution. For people with failing eyesight, this is often not good enough to clearly see many web pages. Dell computers with Windows operating systems (ME, 2000, XP, 98 and Vista) come with a handy tool called the Windows Magnifier, which allows you to zoom in on any part of your screen like a magnifying glass.

Tips & Warnings
When you first run the Magnify tool, it zooms in on anything your mouse is pointing to. You can uncheck this option in the Magnifier tool so that it magnifies only what you are reading or have selected.
On slower machines the screen will go black for several seconds after running the tool, but just wait for the screen to return without touching any buttons.
