HI - If other users are muting volume because they don't want to hear speech software, then perhaps he could stop his speech loading on start up, and use a hot key to access it when he logged on -

Hi,I have been asked by a network administrator if there is a way to disable mute in the Windows volume control. He works at a school, and sited pupils keep muting the volume control so that when a blind user logs on, they have no sound, and therefore no speech. Obveously he can't just disable the volume control as people need to be able to adjust the volume levels, but if there was a way to disable the mute boxes that would be fine.--Check out my radio and TeamTalk server! http://www.jls-radio.com -- James Scholes E-mail: james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MSN/Windows Live Messenger: jamesscholes@xxxxxxx AIM: JamesScholes000 Skype: james.scholes Website: http://www.jamesscholes.com Blog: http://www.jamesscholes.com/blog Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/jamesscholes Find me on Facebook!
