Hi Dan, Thanks for the help. I've looked there but for some reason I can't find that checkbox. I know it should be there. Any ideas?

Unlock accounts and make sure to check the box for having VO start at login. HTH. Sent from my iPod Touch, using VoiceOver.

Voiceover was coming up automatically before I did this but now when I boot the machine it gets to the log in screen and there is no speech until I press command-f5. I think I remember that there is a setting that I should change to have voiceover speak at the login screen but I can't seem to find it. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tommy
