Hi Peter -
If I'm understanding you correctly, I think to turn the screen reader
volume
down under XP, you'd have to do it via the system volume; in Vista, there
are separate volume controls for this, and I find that a useful addition.
Is it just that the screen reader is too loud? I'm not sure why you're
asking about Winamp, if you are able to ajust it's volume using the arrow
keys -
Andy

| Thanks for that but I do have my WinAmp vol set independently of my
screen
| reader and there is still often quite an uncomfortable imbalance between
the
| two volumes. I know it is properly set because I can turn the Winamp
vol
| between max an min without affecting the other volume.
|
| Is there a way of turning the screenReader vol down without reducing the
| WimAmp vol. I use JAWS and XP Home but I'm assuming this is not screen
| reader specific.
|
| Thanks for your help.
