Hello Iaen, Questions are always welcome. -----Original Message----- From: Iaen Cordell <ianc@optusnet.com.au> Sent: Saturday 19 December 2020 22:10 To: 'Mailing list for blind system administrators' <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Re: can ryan contact me off list Many thanks Darragh, areally well presented message. You are correct, window-eyes is no longer supported and would not work in both win ten or a server environment. Any questions are good but Marvin really should get his questions a bit more thought out, not the mixed stream of jumbled thoughts, questions and half baked ideas. As I am on a new path as a server admin having just lost my job I also will have questions and I hope to benefit from the people on this list.

You are trying to jump into Windows server installations but it seems that you need some time to build up the correct fundamental understanding of how all of the technologies fit together. For example: You jump between talking about several versions of Windows 10 and windows server. You also talk about WindowEyes scripts. You are at the beginning of the windows installation but you don't seem to know that WindowEyes or indeed any third party screen reader doesn't apply at that point. Also, you are using WindowEyes. This software is no longer supported from my understanding. I admire your persistence. But you need to spend some more time thinking about what you have tried, what you want to achieve and how exactly you want someone to help you. I assume English isn't your first language. But you still need to structure your messages and requests for help. Your last message is a jumple of versions, tools and applications. After reading it, I have absolutely no idea what you are trying to achieve. Please take this as encouragement to do better. This group can help you achieve your goals. But speaking as just one member, you will get more if you try a little harder in your requests for help.

Can ryan contact me off list. I just read his blog about his journey to Microsoft. Will schm or any accessible help me with my issue. Don't have head set, just speakers, when I launch a windows 2012 , 2016, 2019. No audio. Just hear caps lock on and off when I go to then host audio with my real tech speakers, so hear that, but windows narrator does not come on. Will window-eyes help me out. Or is there any scripts, did try the Sc config audiosrv start= auto and it does not turn audio on. So have tried that. Did try Dev Man View, but did enable audio and did save it as the same name for my speakers. So is there any way to turn on audio, except having to have sighted help. Has ryan ever ran into this issue. Running windows 10 2009 pro. Got 8 gb ram, and allocating 4 gb for vms, for my networking course. Had to get sighted help to do a whole bunch of vms, for windows 2019 , and this was my trainers versions and he gave me the keys for this. And now using windows server 2012 r2, and running into the same issue. If I go with my default audio. Windows narrator does not come on. Just got a standard ear bud heaphones. Don't have a head set. Any ideas. Have tried googling and trying a whole bunch of things, and don't want to have to rely on sighted help all the time. Have contacted enterprise disability and in Australia and waiting for a reply have tried to do things and get it to work. So any scripts. Think the last version of window eyes works with windows 10. But not sure, maybe 2004. Got 20 h 2 or 2009. And got a intel I 7 3 2.3 quad core or duel core up to 6 cores ghz processor, 500 gb solid state drive and a Samsung 2 inch solid state drive external drive 512 gb. So any ideas. This is stupid. Either a oversight with accessibility for Microsoft or they have deleiberatley done this so not to have extra resources. Any ideas and please be civil, no snide reamrks or be sarcastic. Have been polite to you guys. And have not rambed. Just explained my situation as best as possible. This is stupid. Know how to install windows 10 without sighted help and able to run windows narrator. Cannot do this in server. So, will the scm or a terminal by pass this. Any ideas. Do have putty.
