Hi Eleanor, the easiest way to start narrator is from the command line. If you 
go to start menu, pressing r will take you to run, then type narrator. Don't 
forget it's a double r. I notice you've only put one.
                    John.

  Ah yes thanks I know that, it was a matter of me being impatient and wanting 
to get the laptop set up immediately.  Well I am nearly there and should be 
fully there tomorrow.  My brother was offering to put on the screen reader but 
I stupidly said I was fine and now I will have to ask him to do it as I just do 
not appear to be able to start Narator.

    Hi, 

    RNIB have computer volunteers. I'm not sure whether they cover all areas of 
the country, however it would be worth asking before forking out £30. I've used 
them once or twice (I'm in South-East London) and found them good. 

    Hope this helps.

    I would get sighted help I just bought recently a toshiba l65012k laptop 
with windows 7 64 bit and there was lots of pages of junk you had to fill in 
before you even got to that stage or if sighted help is not available yes it 
would be worth paying the shop to get you up and running best wishes Andrew

      Hi
      New computer/laptop out of the box!!!  Once I turn it on, then anyone 
able to tell me the procedure until Windows 7 logo comes up.  What will be the 
various dialogue boxes and what will I have to be putting in?  I could have 
paid the shop £30 for the privilege but I am confident you good people with 
personal experience will be able to advise me.  If people think I should pay 
for this privilege then I am open to that advice too.

      Many thanks.

      Eleanor
