[access-uk] Re: How do you wake up a silent computer?\

Peter, thanks for that explanation.  Yes, it does work, but given 
that when I open my program menu it shows the most recent 
programs and folders accessed, it doesn't quite work out neatly 
for me.  However, in my friends case it should work as his 
computer hasn't had time to get over-compicated with use and 
customization.  So I'll pass it on to him.

Ray, If you hit the windows key, then P, you will be placed right 
onto
the Accessories menu. By hitting Enter you will enter that menu. 
By
hitting E you will move into the Entertainment menu. By hitting V 
you
will launch Volume Control By tabbing twice you will land on the 
mute
check box. By hitting the spacebar you will uncheck that box.

Give it a try and see if I'm not wrong.

Peter

Well Peter, trouble is that 'P' in classic mode brings up the
programs list.  It might help if you could tell me what lies
behind the keystrokes you give.

Ray, here is what to do. If you have to phone your friend, this
is what
he does. First, make sure that Jaws is loaded.
1. hit the windows key.
2. hit the letter P.
3. Hit enter.
4. Hit the letter E.
5. Hit the letter V.
Wait a second or four.
6. Now tab twice.
7. hit the spacebar once.

If you phone him and run him through this procedure all should be
well,
assuming he has his computer on Classic mode.

Peter

Hi list.

A friend, the same one who had to ddowngrade to Windows XP home 
to use
JAWS standard and who needed help with BT interenet, has had 
another
problem, and not just once.  The speech and sound from his 
computer have
just vanished!

He's totaly blind so its very hard to tell him what he might do 
to get
the PC up and talking again.  So, folks, how do you get sound 
back when
it vanishes?

No, the speakers are connected and OK, the volume is turned up. 
There's
just no sound.  I think it is the mixer volume controls being 
altered,
most likely a mute setting.  So, is there a command, or some sort 
of
script file that stands a good chance of recovering lost sound? 
Such a
thing ought to be possible to help, at least in some cases.  Any
thoughts? Ray
