MORE INFORMATION

In Windows 95, you can specify a keyboard preference option that informs programs that you prefer to use the keyboard rather than the mouse. Programs written to support this feature change their appearance to graphically display keyboard-related items.

The Use ShowSounds option instructs programs that normally convey information only with sounds to also provide information visually, such as by displaying text captions or informative icons.
