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
