| Hi Andy,
|
| That certainly is a possibility.  I have not tried it with SA To Go, but I
| do it often with System Access itself.  SA and NVDA and indeed Thunder,
| don't rely on video hooks, so it is easy to update your video drivers with
| these screen readers.  From what I have seen though, I wouldn't attempt it
| with Thunder, it is just too darned slow.
|
| All the best
|
| Steve

| But Steve, how is one cautious? Either I do it or I don't, and either it
| will work or it won't.
|
| You have now suggested using SaToGo; I haven't used this programme, but if 
I
| understand correctly, it isn't a downloadable programme, but one that runs
| when connected to the internet, is that right? And if so, do I connect to
| SaToGo, and then use it to update my drivers instead of JFW?
|
| Thanks -

||
||| Hi George,
|||
||| This is incorrect.  With both Window-Eyes and JAWS, you can easily do 
it.
||| What happens is that on the reboot when the video drivers have been
|| updated,
||| both of them will ask you to reboot while they update the video
|| intercepts.
||| You are behind the times <Smile>.  In fact, I even tried it with Hal and
|| it
||| works.

|||
||| Hi Andy,
|||
||| You don't need to uninstall the old ATI drivers, but I'd be a shade wary
||| about installing new video drivers without sighted help to hand. It will
||| most likely break the video chain to your screen reader, leaving you
|| without
||| speech, and the necessity to re-install your screen reader.
|||
||| George.

|||
||| Hi all -
|||
||| I'm pasting my message from yesterday here again, as it got no responce,
|| and
||| I'm sure there are people on this list that can help, so please do if 
you
||| can, it's always apreciated.
|||
||| Start of message:
|||
||| Hi all -
|||
||| Ok, a scan of my PC tells me that certain drivers need updating, and I'm
||| trying to understand quite what to do, and what I need to download!
|||
||| When I click on the link from driveragent.com to update the driver, the
|| page
||| that comes up says:
|||
||| "The following packages will provide display drivers and capture drivers
||| that can be used with various video capture programs."
|||
||| And then it lists what is in the package, the first thing being the
|| display
||| driver, is this all I'll need, or will I need the rest of the package
| that
||| includes things like 'catalyst control centre' or the 'WDM Integrated
||| Driver.'
|||
||| Can I ask too, if I need to uninstall from 'add/remove'
||| within the control
||| panel, the existing ati drivers that these updates are to replace?
|||
||| Thanks as ever -
|||
||| Andy
