Your out of luck. Microsoft has taken down the update websites for xp. I am running xp as we speak and same problem for me if my com[uter shuts down. ----- Original Message ----- From: George McCoy To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, July 06, 2014 4:22 PM Subject: Trying to help a friend.
Greetings, My friend lives in Canada. I live in the southern U.S. He runs XP home. I believe he has all the XP updates. I run windows 7 home premium. His computer crashed last December. The store that sold it to him reformatted his drive and reinstalled XP. When he installed window-eyes 8.0, he found that window-eyes would not read the contents of edit boxes. This includes edit boxes on the web with i.e. 8 and in programs like A V G. In february, his computer crashed again with a windows did not shut down properly message. Someone got him up and running by using an XP cd. Now, however, window-eyes is not only not reading the contents of edit boxes but when he uses the mouse keys on the numpad, window-eyes just says the word “blank” on the press of each key. Window-eyes was performing perfectly before the December crash. We would be very grateful for any suggestions on how to resolve these issues. My friend is not technical at all. Are there any remote assistance solutions out there that would work between his XP system and my windows 7 box? Thanks very much for reading, George If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
