If bit-locker is a Whole Disk Encryption system, I'd say probably not,
because you'd be entering that before a screen reader can get a chance to
load.  But I would also think the prompt would appear early after you start
the machine.

If you can't get speech for this, I can recommend the following things to
try:

1. See if a backspace key beeps when the prompt is there. If so, you can tap
Backspace occasionally while your system boots until you get a beep
indicating the prompt has appeared.

2. Wait for silence, and/or figure out about how long to wait from power-on
to prompt.

Folks,

My employer requires that we enter a bit-locker encryption key before we log
on.  I am using a Windows 7 64-bit machine.  Is there any way to get
narrator, or JAWS,  to tell me when the encryption key is requested?
