I am afraid this is not correct. The best that can be achieved on an XP machine is a start up auto play dialogue box which should have start NVDA highlighted. Pressing enter though should start NVDA. Users of Vista will often have problems if Vista attempts to scan the USB pen. Generally the advice is to use Narrator to try and get around this to start NVDA from the USB drive. I have also heard that the NVDA portable start up does not work in Windows 7 but I have no direct experience of this.
If you want a guaranteed startup of NVDA without the need to press any keys this can be achieved by putting the portable NVDA files and the relevant autorun.inf on a CD. I have successfully accessed several vista machines this way . You do not have to do anything, just put the CD in and wait for NVDA to start. This can take a little while, depending on the speed of the machine.

What I ment to ask is concerning the portable versions. If I have them on a flash drive, do I just plug in the flash drive and then it will start talking? This question is in reference to NVDA? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Maria Campbell Sent: Monday, January 11, 2010 10:19 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] system to go Pretty similar to JAWS. You can try it by going to www.satogo.com One difference is that you must be connected to the Internet for it to work.
