Hi guys
can anyone recommend some simple computer training software for my Mum to use?
My Aunt somehow persuaded Mum to buy a laptop so she could play online Bingo. Mums skills are non existent - 6 weeks after her purchase and I still see her trying to use the Enter key as a track pad. I told her that her best bet is to find a basic computer course at the local college but she hasn't bothered to follow that up. She tells me she has managed a few games (of Bingo). should I just leave her too it? Is there any cheapish computer software I could buy for her that can show her how to do basic things like open/move folders - but without actually letting her format the laptop?

Thanks for helping
 
Hi guys
I'd love to spend time with her, but honestly, I'm not the most patient and therefore not best suited for the task. I can only visit at weekends too and will be there later today for a few hours. I just don't know where to start... she's still struggling to log in with her online bingo....I think I'll go over there a bit earlier than planned. Thanks for helping.
