there is a little picture of an apple in the top left corner. Click on it and a drop down menu will appear.
System prefs is about fourth down

Thanks Ottawaman, Mom says thank you very much.
She picked this system up for $200 and was going to get rid of it because of this. Now she can enjoy the world of Macs. I'm rather jealous I must admit.
