in practice though I think JAWS generally works well with the colour settings left at default. There is actually no need to change anything for JAWS to work quite well though if you are used to windows 98 these settings do make the PC look more familiar.

To check or change these settings: Go to your start menu, press s for settings, c for control panel, press d until you hear display and press enter. Control tab to the appearance tab and the first combo box will be your color scheme. To find colors and resolution, control tab to the settings tab. The first thing is a combo box for your colors. It you tab there is a slider bar for screen area for your screen resolution. Use the slider bar to set the percentage and then you have to use your jaws cursor to check the actual numbers below it.
