Hi, Here is a blog on the subject: http://www.gwmicro.com/blog/index.php/all/?title=window-eyes-and-windows-7-xpm&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 Will probably use a separate machine for accessing the relevant programs (I have one for testing patches anyway). Thanks. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Ryan Shugart Sent: 10 December 2009 19:41 To: Blind sysadmins list Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Anyone tried out the XP virtual machine for Windows 7 with JFW/We? Andrew: I've tried it with Window-eyes, and it works, but badly. It basically sets up an XP VM, and you RDP into that with a special client. The virtual synnthesizer doesn't work so speech is sluggish, and Window-eyes doesn't pass commands through properly either.

Hi, At work running Windows 7 X64. Looking at trying the compatibility pack for XP, which deploys an XP image on your Windows 7 box. Just wondering whether it supports the use of a screen reader (like JFW or WindowEyes)? Thanks. Andrew. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org http://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/blind-sysadmins _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org http://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/mailman/listinfo/blind-sysadmins -- allpay achieved PCI DSS and ISO 27001 certification in 2008 Registered in England No. 02933191.
