Hi Eleanor,
Just ask them to read the screens and answer the prompts that you are
offered. If all goes well, you should just be able to answer yes to the
prompts, but the reason for sighted help is that you can have absolutely no
programs loaded, including speech while your BIOS is being flashed. I have
done it loads of times with my mum, who knows nothing about computers, but
knows how to read a screen.
All the best
Steve

Well as I read it Steve, he was just wanting to caution and get his point
across and I would certainly have listened to that. Nowe do I need sighted
assistance to update my BIOS? If I do and the person doesn't know much
about computers and I am just using their vision, how should I instruct them
to make sure I don't make a mess of things?
