oh howawful but lucky you have a sighted person around, other day I went to waylay a stranger in street after a visitor who wanted to see how jaws worked muted my dell windows 7, I was lucky nice man came in and he said he clicked on a picture of a trumpet,yesterday a visitor said "cannot se any trumpet, david whitehead on this list gave me some tips. I know it is not wise to beg strangers to help On the other hand I think a well known female writer once said " in life I have always relied upon the kindness of strangers, forget her name, think she was either a poet or married once to Hemingway, if the latter she would have needed a kind stranger! sorry moderator dorothy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Midence" <alex.midence@xxxxxxxxx>

Hmm. does it have a mute button. I did that with my laptop once. I was sure I'd ruined it. Didn't sleep the whole night cause it was my work computer and I'd hauled off and messed it up, I thought. Turns out I'd hit the mute button by mistake since it was righ tnext to the power button and the dern thing wouldn't talk, of course. Had the wife look at it and she figured it out pretty quick. Have you had a sighted friend look at it? Is there any vibration from the machine itself? Does narrator come up? Hit left windows+u to launch narrator. Least, that's what you do in windows xp, not sure about windows 7. Hope that helps Alex On 6/18/10, Jim L <jimscave@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Heya folks, Am in a panic mode this morning installed jaws 9 on my Asus netbook lastnight so far so good till this morning when I left it on for awhile and now its gone all quiet no sound like its in some sleep mode thing but it doesntmatter whether I press space, enter or the power button nothing seems to wake it, is there a special key combo I need to wake it back up? cheers, Jim-- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.comJFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfwAlternative archives located at: http://n2.nabble.com/JAWS-for-Windows-f2145279.htmlIf you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
