Re: [Audyssey] An accessible digital chessboard
Hi, I said "chessboard", quite because I was refering to a physical chessboard. I hurd a long while ago on this list that a digital (physical) chessboard is out there, that has the magnetic places for the pieces, and had also a software in it that could actually move the pieces, serving as your oponent, but, not sure though, it also could record logs and positions when you were playing with a human oponent usint it.

Re: [Audyssey] An accessible digital chessboard
Some chess programs have this as an option. You can enter your moves by typing them on your keyboard, pick up and move the pieces on your screen using your mouse, or actually use this external board and chess set, picking up your desired piece and setting it on the desired square. Then, the program sends the signals to the board and men so that they seem to move on their own. It's an interesting method of playing electronic chess. Some stand alone chess machines actually use this magnetic board and men setup as the method by which you and the machine execute the moves of the game. They don't work for blind people because the magnets aren't strong enough to keep the pieces firmly adhered to the board when you touch them as you examine the board to make your next move. --- Be positive!

Re: [Audyssey] got my new solid state drive in
Cloning can be extremely accessible (google drive image xml). As far as installation goes, given that you're working with an ssd, you should be able to plug it in yourself. Pay careful attention to the cables plugged into your existing disk, track them back to their source, and find matching ones for the ssd. Once that's done, you should be able to boot your machine, clone the existing drive (make sure your current partitions are smaller or of an equal size to the ssd - this is the most complicated part imho) and remove your current hdd (or just reformat it). The part you will certainly need sighted help for is getting the system to boot from the ssd once its installed; do a google search for "change boot order" or something similar. P.S: This applies to desktops only. If you're on a laptop, get a professional to do it for you (especially because laptops don't usually fit multiple drives). Good luck. - Original Message - From: Dallas O'Brienwrote: hey i got my new crucial.com 250gig solid state drive installed. I am very impressed. My computer runs much faster now. Sometimes NVDA would lag and it would take awhile for games to load even in windows10 pro 64bit on this hp elitebook 6930p laptop. But now its so snappy and quiet it is unbelievable! It cost $79 from amazon. everything from my favorite audiogames to screen readers to software voice engines load so much quicker. ms-word loads in less than a half a second. Its almost like I turned my computer into a partial super-fast tablet or notetaker! so guys if you want your audio games loading super super fast and if you want your laptop or desktop to feel like a superComputer then I very much recommend getting an ssd and using the free macrium reflect software along with a USB to sata cable to clone the old spinning hard drive to the new ssd. your whole computer and audio games and screen reader will thank you for it!
