How do I access history on the computer showing what was access chronologically?

If you have IE7 then go to your favorites(the star) then to History. I don't think you can do it chronlogically. But if you know what your looking for then it will be easy.

If you have anything lover then IE7 go to tools, internet options, history.

If you use anything else like Firefox. I don't know. But I'm sure its along the lines with IE.

If you're referring to the internet history, then the previous poster was correct. If you're referring to when certain programs were used, you would probably have to right-click on the executable for the application and look at the modified or last accessed time-stamp. But you'd have to do that one-by-one for each program.

.. and if I may be so bold, using Firefox it would be:
Ctrl + h (history)
Or
History > Show in sidebar
