Hello,

Sorry for delay.

Basically we talking now about Windows7-64 and manager 7.0.18.
1. In Tools/Display and network options/General - "Run Manager at 
login?" and "Enable Manager exit dialog?" labels are not readed by 
screen reader.
2. Notices tab - content are not visible for screen reader.
3. All statistics are displayed as charts, it's not a problem for points 
info, but hdd information will be usefully as text for screen readers.

Loads more problems with WinXP, but I suspect that nobody wants to play 
with old system now?
When I get some more data I will send it again and also I will sent info 
how it works with simple view.

Regards

Krzysztof
