and I think if you go into sounds in control panel there is a check box to switch the start up sound on. it's off buy default I don't mind but I know others like it on.

He has set it up using Narrator, and is now running NVDA on it as he wants to dump JAWS. So the questions: 1. Getting Windows 8 to play the welcome and shut down chimes. 2. How to silence NVDA when K1000 and/or Open Book is running. Many thanks for this. I can't help myself as I don't have Windows 8, and haven't used NVDA yet.
