Hi,

 

You can definitely install Boot Camp without sighted assistance and then 
Windows also.  When you run the Boot Camp program from the Mac side, it prompts 
you for all the details so you can use VoiceOver.  When the machine boots into 
Windows, you can load Narrator to finish install.

 

In theory Narrator should start speaking with the default Mac speakers.  But I 
will say that on at least one computer I did have to plug in a USB  audio 
device to get speech during OS install.  I keep a basic USB audio device around 
for these kinds of situations.  I have configured three different Macs for Boot 
Camp.

 

That said, I would personally go with either VMWare or Virtual Box first.  I 
use both successfully on my Mac and am really coming to like using VMWare 
fusion.  I dealt with the caps lock keyboard issue in that program by using 
their keyboard assignment feature in preferences and just assigned a different 
key to be my caps lock key.  I wrote a bit more on that at 
http://theideaplace.net/a-short-update-on-virtual-machines-to-include-an-apple-mac/.

 

I have also had good success with Boot Camp to be clear.  I’m preparing for 
some extended travel and want to reduce the hardware I need so have been 
ensuring I can use both Boot Camp and virtual machines from within the Mac OS.

 

I have to say whatever Apple did in their latest audio driver for Boot Camp 
under Windows is working perfectly here.  Speech is back to being crisp, 
responsive and no dropping with several screen readers.

Hi There.

 

Can you install Boot Camp without sighted assistance and also Windows 10?  I am 
wondering what to install, VMWare or Bootcamp if it’s accessible to do.

 

Thank you.

 

Kawal.

Hi,

 

I am curious if anyone else has noticed an improvement with the audio when 
running Windows under Boot Camp.  With the most recent update, the issue of 
missing the first syllable of speech is so far gone for me with the different 
screen readers.  I’m not sure when the updated drivers and such were released 
but when I ran Windows on my Mac this morning there were updates from Apple.
