[NABS-L] hyper v issues windows server for a blind student

[Littlefield, Tyler]

Load nvda up on a key, rename it to nvda.exe so you can install, install 
that device in your vm. Then just start trying paths:
d:\nvda.exe
E:\nvda.exe
F:\nvda.exe
etc.
This is how I install JAWS on unfamiliar systems.
If you use VMWare player, this also works.
