    You guys are going to get a laugh out of this, but here goes. I was sitting here playing a game and for some reason, I touched something on my keyboard. The windows magnifier came up and I couldn't clear it. I went to the control panel
    and and checked Performance and Maintenance. Still couldn't find anything that would shut off the magnifier. So, what did I do to start magnifier and if this happens again, how can I shut it off without rebooting, which I had to do this time? Thanks for any help you can give me. BTW, I have a E-machine computer and a USB2 keyboard.

    You should be able to shut it off by going to Control Panel>Ease of Access Center>Make the Computer Easier To See.

    PS. I did the same thing, that's how I know. LOL

    Do you get that option in XP?

    If running XP try Start --> All Programs --> Accessories --> Accessability --> Magnifier

    Didn't even think of that. Those were the instructions for Vista.
