When the Windows boots up, you can run Narrator. It is very rudimentary but will speak enough so that you can get Jaws up and running.

I chose one that uses Windows 7 because I have MS Office 2007 and Outlook 2007 and they serve my needs. I am charging the computer now. When I turn it on for the first time it will have no speech capability so I don't know if it will show instructions or updates on the screen. I will load my JAWS 15 SMA CD and run it. Are there any traps or problems anybody has experienced in starting their laptop for the first time? Would it be a good idea to have sighted help for that initial start? Any wisdom will be appreciated.
