Hi Dean.
Sorry Mate, I'm using WindowEyes on that computer and to be honest, I have
only started using Windows so don't know the correct keystroke to use.
I went into System and within this there were a couple of sub directories,
namely: General: Computer Name: Hardware: Advanced: System Restore:
Automatic Updates and Remote. I have gone into each of these with
WindowEyes and tabbed though the various options but still cannot find
anything relating to my current OS? Which directory should I be looking in.
If I knew this, then perhaps I can use the Windoweyes cursor to read
everything on that particular page.
Thanks for your advice.
Best wishes.
Andy
