    Hey guys, my uncle has horrible eyes, and all he wants to do is play solitaire on his computer. He has windows xp right now, but the thing is he can't see the cards very well. What I have done is set the resolution to 800x600 which is the lowest, and set the fonts and everything to large. Before on windows 98 he was able to set it a resolution lower. Is there any way to make to a smaller resolution? Is there any other solitaire games you guys reccomend that has a large cards? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    You cannot change the resolution other than given in the properties.

    Have you tried the windows magnifier? Start > All Programs > Accessories > Accessibility > Magnifier
