Hi,
    For a screen magnifying program, try doing a search on
http://www.shareware.com for "magnify".  I came up with three different
Windows 95 programs.  Also, to change the size of an icon in Windows 95, go
to the display properties (Start->Settings->Control Panel->Display)  and
choose Appearance.  In the combobox labeled Item, click the arrow and
choose Icon.  The size box next to it will activate and allow you to change
the size of your icons.

HTH,
Donald Gaither
