to Getting Every Computer to Speak</A> </H3>
<DIV class=post-header></DIV>Narrator is built into every PC computer, if you
are running Microsoft products and their operating systems (OS).<BR><BR>If you
are using talking software already and you use the following hotkey, the
double speech may get annoying, so turn it off. Narrator is a basic program.
If you do not have talking software on your machine and need to get it
installed, this is a way you can do it independently. It is a basic talking
program and does not come close to a speech program such as <A
href="http://www.freedomscientific.com/downloads/jaws/jaws-downloads.asp">JAWS</A>,
but it does help you to get things setup.<BR><BR>In Windows 7, Hit your Start
Key+U also known as the Windows key with the Logo+ U - hit ALT+N to start
narrator...if you are blind, you are going to walk by faith as you turn on
your computer with NO speech and just do those 2 commands and narrator will
start speaking to you. A dialog box will open with options, just TAB through
to select the ones you want to use and continue with your work on the
machine.<BR><BR>In XP, hitting the Start Key+U will immediately get Narrator
talking. A dialog box will open with options--down arrow to listen to the
options, then TAB to your next options, then TAB to OK.<BR><BR>This is a
wonderful option for anyone who needs speech to get things setup on his or her
new computer or fix one where the speech has gone down.
