Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Talking WinPE(was: harddisk backup software question)

Hi, I got the disk.zip and extracted it, but where do I put the aditional software? Many thanks for any info Christian On 2014-06-29 at 12:48 Ben Mustill-Rose wrote:

Chris,

It would be muche easier for you if you just downloaded the .zip file that John is hosting, added any additional software to it that is required (just copy & paste) then make into an ISO & burn / write to some form of media.

Cheers, Ben.

I do not know if these disks work but a couple of months ago, we put some talking WinPE disks on the web site of the International Association of Visually Impaired Technologists (www.iavit.org). See:

If anybody builds some talking winpe images, let me know and I'll put them on the IAVIT web site.

Hi, Oh, that would be awsome if you could send the instructions. I think I found it on winbuilder.net an updated version with commands instead of menus, but is based on Java so you need Java access bridge in order to use it. Many thanks! Christian

Hi. The process of building the talking WinPE uses a program called WinBuilder. If you are proficient with your screen readers mouse movement keystrokes it can be done with some work.

I used Jaws. I labeled some of the graphics and using the jaws cursor and a bit of poking around, I was able to build a custom talking WinPE. I updated NVDA and included image for windows.

I got the information and the initial set of files from someone on the blind tech list. I can send you the zip file along with the instructions he sent me. The .zip file is about 90mb. You also might have to download and install any drivers your system may need, such as audio drivers. By default, the talking WinPE attempts to use an usb audio driver, so you would have to have either an usb sound card, or usb headset. I modified my version with the audio drivers for my system. As I said above, it isn't a walk in the park but it is doable with work

Hi, Many thanks for the reply. Actually, I have that program and I have been using it with a DOS diskette, but where can I find instructions on how to create this custom Talking Win pe? I heared that it wasn't that accessible. Many thanks, Christian

Hi. I have been using image for windows for many years. It is very accessible. It also can be included into something like the talking winpe software that is floating around the internet so you can do a backup/restore of your primary partition from a bootable cd or flash drive. Image for windows, dos, and linux can be found at www.terabyteunlimited.com

you can get all three for about $49 usd.

Hi all, Has anyone a good tip on an accessible harddisk backup software that can also restore your primary Windows partition? Many thanks, Christian
