My eyes are getting pretty weak as well. There is a "high contrast" setting in Win7 as well. You can find the high contrast settings here: http://goo.gl/so2l [at Microsoft] You are welcome Ian.

Made the change and nowI can see things more clearly, I wish they would test the UI with "older" guys who have older vision. I'm only mid-40's and the light blue pastels on pale backgrounds and silly transparency features don't work for me at all - makes it much harder to see things clearly, inreases eye strain and adds general frustration. Lots of good stuff in Win7 though - it's worth the hassles. Thanks for the pointer – I knew about this in XP but of course everything is moved and/or renamed in Win7.

I prefer a little extra speed instead of the eye candy since I'm running it on an older laptop. I'm glad I was able to help. Thanks for your comment. Hi Basak,

I use the minimalist setting most of the time in Win7. I prefer a little extra speed instead of the eye candy since I’m running it on an older laptop. I’m glad I was able to help. Thanks for your comment.
