How do I change the size of the pointer in win95?

[sirjinx1974]

My neighbor is 87 years old and he asked me if I can change the size of the pointer because he can not see it anymore. I looked over the whole computer and I can not find anything. Is there any programs for win95 that lets me change the size? He has a 486 computer by the way so he can not run win2000 or win xp. He has no money to buy a new computer because he is 87 and on medicare. Please help me?

have you looked in control panel -> mouse -> pointers, used the dropdown menu and selected a larger set?

if you don't see them, they may need to be installed. This can be done in add/remove programs -> windows setup-> Accessories -> mouse Pointers.

you might want to lower the resolution too.

I have looked at the list of pointers and none are able to change size. He si already running at 800by600 and most of his desktop icon are huge.
