Needing enlarged graphics for playing MS games - ie; Solitare

[Dakotahillbilly]

My friend is 89 years old and enjoys playing solitare on her computer, but her eyesight is getting worse and cannot make out some of the graphics.  Is there a way to make some of the games  larger to where she can still enjoy playing these games on her computer.   We have increased the size in the display properties, but that also causes the game graphics to spill off the screen.  Is there other similar games that can be purchased that will allow an increase in images.   

Thank ahead for any help...

What you are seeking is a computer with the right set of hardware and software for people with low vision. Sometimes these people are called visually impaired. I am one of such.

To date  I have not found an effective, economical solution for my visual impairment. One thing that helps a little is the use of dual monitors. The second monitor can be a mangier for the first monitor. You can pan the view area on the second monitors. But it is still awkward. 

I have to use a monitor with at least 17 inches and special glasses and I have to withing 12 inches of  the screen.

If you find something the works well,  please let me  hear about it. It is nervy frustrating to not be able to see what others can see.
One company that makes video cars with zoom on the second display is Matrox. But there stuff is either privy or hard to find.

Assuming changing the DPI doesn't work, you could always reduce the resolution.
