the software installed on the PC for the children? |

there.

| How do I adapt the software to meet the needs of my
children? |

| Why does the digital metal detector not
work? |
| They seem to be particular about the metal you detect
- check a range. If it is not beeping at all, check the
batteries. Rechargable batteries appear to work better. |
| We are having trouble printing, why might this
be? |
| Check that your printer settings contain the right printer. Has
it defaulted to something else? If so, go to the Printers folder
and make your printer the default. Try re-installing the printer if
you still have trouble. |
| How do we print photographs? |
| Open one of your photographs in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.
Click the print icon near the bottom. This will open a print wizard
that will let you select the images you wish to print. It will also
give you page setup options to print multiple pictures to a single
sheet. Once you've made your choices, click on Print. |
| How can we make individual folders for our
children's photographs? |
| Go into the 'My Pictures' Folder. Right click the mouse
anywhere on blank white space in the folder window. From the menu
that appears select 'New'. This opens a new menu, select 'Folder'.
A new folder will appear and it's name will be blocked out. You can
now type in a name for the folder. For a guide with pictures,
