7

I have difficulty viewing different types of colors.

Many would call it a color impairment, because when I see to many colors my brain gets overloaded. I would like the following for Windows 7 How can I use my macbook in grayscale?

Is there accessibility setting that can make all windows in Windows 7 black and white?

Try NegativeScreen:

NegativeScreen is a Windows application allowing you to invert your screen colors. Apart from accessibility matters, this software is especially useful when you are surfing on the internet in a dark room, and the screen is dazzling you.

NegativeScreen was designed to work without impacting the performances and fluidity of your computer. Unlike the Windows Magnifier, which is also capable of such color inversion, it was specifically designed to be easy and convenient to use.

Different inversion modes are provided, including “smart” modes, allowing black and white inversion, while keeping colors (about) the same.

The different inversion modes listed might be of use to you, including smart inversion 3 ("overall desaturated, yellows and blues plain bad, actually relaxing and very usable"), negative sepia, negative grayscale, and especially grayscale.

Go to the start menu and type "high contrast". Click the first link and choose a theme that will suit your needs.

Click Start Button > Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Personalization

Scroll down and select one of the high contrast themes

If the colours are not all to your liking, click Window Colour below the themes list. Here you can adjust the colours of individual screen elements.
