[access-uk] Re: Monitor and speakers

Hi Eleanor

I don't think even I would be stupid enough to ask a sighted person to look at 
a monitor which was not there!

  The isssues will arise when you have a sighted person at the computer and 
they want to see what is going on, other than that, why not.  You have an 
excellent reason why you want to do this.  After all I am sure you have heard 
of those TV receivers for blind people (not possibly discosntinued) and they 
looked a bit like large transister radios.  I am one myself for having the 
visual thing but that said I used one of those TV receivers at a period in my 
life when it suited me.

    If it works, then why not recommend it? I have a new PC and as the old one 
has too many issues to try and sell but still in good working order, I want to 
hook it up just for trying out new software for usability before I clog up the 
new PC with it. Also might use for downloading, this way keeps the new PC clean 
and a bit safer. What issues might there possibly be with no monitor?

    I really thought that was a dumb question!

      Hi Barbra.

      Not at all, a lot of blind people do this but I personally don't 
recommend this.  Windows will expect to see a graphics card installed in your 
system, but if there is no monitor connected to the card, Windows shouldn't 
throw a wobbly.

        Hi

        This is probably a stupid question, so please don't think me a dunce 
for asking! I just want to confirm I am right before I do anything.

        Am I correct in thinking that you can't run a desktop PC with a set of 
speakers only and no monitor connected?
