About Windows Properties Dialog Boxes
In this manual you are often asked to open a XXX Properties dialog box, such as the
Modems Properties dialog box, or the Display Properties dialog box. These dialog
boxes let you make changes to the configuration and operation of the component by
clicking check boxes or selecting radio buttons. To open a property dialog box,
from the Start menu in the taskbar at the foot of the Windows display, select
Settings - Control Panel. When you open Control Panel for the first time, only
commonly used items appear. You can open a property dialog box, or similar
window, for the component or feature represented by that icon, by clicking the
underlined name. If you want to show all items, click view all Control Panel
options. You can open a property dialog box by double-clicking an icon. Some of
the Properties dialog boxes that are used to configure components in your computer
