[Blind-Computing] Upgrading to Windows 7
Hello all, First of all, this e-mail is not to flame anybody, nor is it designed to name and shame people. However, after what I've read that Netbooks with Windows XP can't be upgraded to Windows 7, this is completely false. All machines that are running either Windows XP or Vista can be upgraded to 7. The difference here is that no XP edition supports in-place upgrades, meaning that a clean install is required. You can still use your upgrade DVD to perform the clean install though since XP would be recognized by the DVD, thus you can go ahead with the clean install. With Vista, however, the upgrade path depends on what Vista edition you're currently using. Here's the upgrade paths you can follow: Vista Home Premium -7 Home Premium Vista Business -7 Professional Vista Ultimate -7 Ultimate Other editions of Vista, like Home Basic, are not supported, and thus no upgrade path exists. There's also no upgrade path if you wish to upgrade from a 32-bit edition of Windows Vista to a 64-bit edition of Windows 7. In both cases a clean install is required, however the upgrade DVD will work for this since Vista will be recognized by the DVD. What I will say though is that it's completely your choice if you decide to cancel your licence, but I thought I'd better get this out there for fear of misinformation. So hope this all helps and it clears things. Have a good day. -- Chris Hallsworth E-mail: christopher...@googlemail.com MSN: ch9...@hotmail.com Skype: chrishallsworth7266 For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [Blind-Computing] Netbooks and Windows 7
You can certainly run windows 7 on your netbook. You have to do a clean install though. Make sure that you have enough ram in your netbook to make it run smooth, then there are no problems. I have bought an additional 2 gig for my netbook and should get the ram delivered on Monday. So if you would like to run windows 7 on it you could.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Netbooks and Windows 7
Hi rogelio, Yes chris' message listed after yours, so just now read his. I have a lenovo ideapad S E 10 e. You have to undo 2 screws and then once you have it open you also just replace the ram alreaydy in there, very easy to get to as well. So hopefully I can do that myself. I purchased 2 gigs, the lenovo has 512 on board and then a stick with 512, which is what I will replace with the 2 gigs. I will 'loose' the 512 on board as it will only recognize up to 2 ram at least this is what the manual said, but I will still have double than what I have now, so I am pleased.

OK. I read some good reviews about Lenovo. On mine on the right side before the USB port. I just click a little card and it slides right out. And the new one goes right in.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Netbooks and Windows 7
You hit the nail right on the head. I am waiting for the Internet people to come to my house in a couple of hours. This is because I pay for the Internet but I usually get a free signal on my Laptop therefore I don't usually plug in the cable. As soon as that gets fixed because it has been broken for a couple of months, I will just download Windows 7 Advisor and you know that don't lie. This is because I am having a little trouble configuring the firewall in my Netbook so it can pick up a good signal.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Problem With Jaws
Silly question, but is jaws definitely set to start automatically? Either in the jaws window, go to the options menu and then hit enter on basics and tab around that dialogue til you find the option, or else if it's running in the system tray, hit jaws key + J, right arrow on options submenu, and hit enter on basics. The checkbox for starting it automatically is literally called something like automatically start jaws, and once you've made sure it's checked, tab to and hit space on the ok button.

[Blind-Computing] CD DVD drives sharing on network places
Hi friends, I'm wondering if I can share an external CD, DVD drive under my network places. I'm using a Hewlett Packard Netbook with Windows XP Pro which doesn't have a CD or DVD drive on it and a Windows 2000 Pro on a Del desktop which has a very slow processer. where I use the netbook computer there isn't enough room for the external drive to sit and I would need a 23 foot cable to make the connection. I'd like to connect the external drive to the desktop computer and share it on the network and use the netbook computer to operate the external drive. My question is, can this be done and which processer will be used to read the CD's I'm ripping from or burning to. Both computers are connected to the same wireless router. Any help in this dilemma would be appreciated. Brian For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

[Blind-Computing] Boot from VHD
Hello all, Here's how to use a perhaps little known new feature in Windows 7, boot from VHD. 1. Open Disk Management. 2. Right click the disk management tree, and click create VHD. If you have a VHD already which you'd like to use for the boot from VHD feature, skip this step and read on to find out how you attach a VHD. 3. Follow the instructions, however I recommend dynamically expanding rather than fixed as fixed takes longer to create. 4. Click ok. The new VHD will be attached to the system, appearing as an additional physical disk with nothing on them, not even a partition. 5. If you have a VHD already that you'd like to attach, right click the Disk Management tree and choose attach VHD. Click the browse button to find a VHD file. 6. Click ok. The VHD is attached to the system. 7. Now here's the fun part! Either run the Windows 7 install from the iso or the DVD, choose custom when asked, and choose your new disk, which should be recognized by the size of it. 8. From then on, you'll have a boot menu, both with Windows 7 as the label, but the Windows 7 installed on the VHD will be the first, so if you just press enter or wait a while then the bootloader will unpack the VHD and start loading the OS. Now how cool is that! Eventually the VHD support will be limited to creating and mounting/dismounting in Home Premium and Professional, whilst all features, including boot from VHD, will be available in Enterprise and Ultimate. Let us know how you got on with it.

However, after what I've read that Netbooks with Windows XP can't be upgraded to Windows 7, this is completely false. All machines that are running either Windows XP or Vista can be upgraded to 7. The difference here is that no XP edition supports in-place upgrades, meaning that a clean install is required. You can still use your upgrade DVD to perform the clean install though since XP would be recognized by the DVD, thus you can go ahead with the clean install. With Vista, however, the upgrade path depends on what Vista edition you're currently using. Here's the upgrade paths you can follow: Vista Home Premium -7 Home Premium Vista Business -7 Professional Vista Ultimate -7 Ultimate Other editions of Vista, like Home Basic, are not supported, and thus no upgrade path exists. There's also no upgrade path if you wish to upgrade from a 32-bit edition of Windows Vista to a 64-bit edition of Windows 7. In both cases a clean install is required, however the upgrade DVD will work for this since Vista will be recognized by the DVD.

Win Frotz is an emulator, right? If this is a program that is trustworthy then the scanner sometimes can go off with this alert,because malware is sometimes compiled and packed in the same manner as was used with this program.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Boot from VHD
Cool! That and the XP Mode emulation features are the only compelling reasons for using Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate that I have heard. I have resisted due to JAWS costs.

Don Marang - Original Message - From: Chris Hallsworth christopher...@googlemail.com To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, July 26, 2009 12:41 PM Subject: [Blind-Computing] Boot from VHD Hello all, Here's how to use a perhaps little known new feature in Windows 7, boot from VHD. 1. Open Disk Management. 2. Right click the disk management tree, and click create VHD. If you have a VHD already which you'd like to use for the boot from VHD feature, skip this step and read on to find out how you attach a VHD. 3. Follow the instructions, however I recommend dynamically expanding rather than fixed as fixed takes longer to create. 4. Click ok. The new VHD will be attached to the system, appearing as an additional physical disk with nothing on them, not even a partition. 5. If you have a VHD already that you'd like to attach, right click the Disk Management tree and choose attach VHD. Click the browse button to find a VHD file. 6. Click ok. The VHD is attached to the system. 7. Now here's the fun part! Either run the Windows 7 install from the iso or the DVD, choose custom when asked, and choose your new disk, which should be recognized by the size of it. 8. From then on, you'll have a boot menu, both with Windows 7 as the label, but the Windows 7 installed on the VHD will be the first, so if you just press enter or wait a while then the bootloader will unpack the VHD and start loading the OS. Now how cool is that! Eventually the VHD support will be limited to creating and mounting/dismounting in Home Premium and Professional, whilst all features, including boot from VHD, will be available in Enterprise and Ultimate.

If this is a program that is trustworthy then the scanner sometimes can go off with this alert,because malware is sometimes compiled and packed in the same manner as was used with this program. Considering the fact that this is a free emulator it may be a false positive. best to just go ahead and use an online scanner to recheck the file in question. kaspersky.has a good online scan for single files. so you may want to run your file thru their scanner. her is the link: http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus regards chrissy - Original Message - From: acart...@juno.com To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, July 26, 2009 12:46 PM Subject: [Blind-Computing] AVG threat detection inquiry Hi list, It's AC.

[Blind-Computing] Has anybody used Stratasoft?
Hi: The company that I work for is changing their software. They are switching to one called Stratasoft. My concerns are obviously how good does it run with JAWS and how complicated is it to use? Has anybody ever used it, and if so, how is the experience? I've got a programmer available to me but I know with all of his genius and expertese there's only so much he can do. Any ideas? Thanks so much. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [Blind-Computing] Back up Utility
I don't think it is installed automatically in the XP Home Edition. You can, however, install it from the XP CD. (I'm assuming that you can do that on a Netbook, but I actually don't know that.) 1. Insert the CD Rom and navigate to CD-ROM Drive:\VALUEADD\MSFT\NTBACKUP 2. Launch the Ntbackup.msi file to start the wizard that installs Backup 3. When the wizard is complete, choose Finish. -Original Message- From: blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Rogelio Terrazas Sent: Sunday, July 26, 2009 4:03 PM To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Subject: [Blind-Computing] Back up Utility Does anyone know the file name of the Backup utility in XP Home?
