- On a PC or IBM, simply go to your start menu
and access your settings file. From your settings file, select your
Control Panel. Within the Control Panel select the icon that says, "Display."
There you will be shown a separate pop-up menu form which you will select
the tab that says, "Settings." On the right of the "settings" menu,
you'll find a sliding bar that allows you to adjust the size of your
desktop area. Slide the bar to "Less" (to the left) to make the objects
on your screen appear larger. Slide the bar to "More" (to the right)
to make the objects appear bigger.
- On a Mac, go to the Apple Menu located in
the upper left hand corner of your screen and select "Control Panels."
From there, select "Monitors" or "Monitors & Sound."
When you do this, you'll be shown a pop-up window from which you will
select the monitor ratio 640 x 480 in order to make the windows on your
screen appear larger.
- In Internet Explorer, go to the top tool bar
in your browser window and select the button that says, "Tools." The
"Tools" menu will appear as a drop-down box from which you'll select
"Internet Options." Your computer will display the "Internet Options"
Menu in a different box. In the middle of that box, you will see a section
that is labeled "Temporary Internet Files." Select the button that says,
"Delete Files." It may take a few seconds to delete the files. Once
this is done, close the Explorer Window, so that it can reset. Once
you launch Explorer again, you'll be able to see updates to the web
page.
- In Netscape, go to the top tool bar in your browser window and select the button that says, "Edit." From the "Edit" menu select "Preferences..." Scroll down and select the "Advanced" option. Click the button that says "Clear Disk Cache Now." This will allow you to reload and see the most recent edition of the page.
