One thing you might want to make sure is that it is letting you log in as admin and not guest. I worked on a friends computer and this is what his was doing. Found out that even as guest his permissions was corrupt and had to be reinstalled. Try getting narrator running by just typing it in the sin7 start menu search. It would let me start it that way, but key short cuts for it wouldn't work at all. At 10:53 PM 2/1/2011, you wrote: Hey listers, I am dealing with a new Dell PC with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

Would you say that's more a fault of Nero V7 Ultra Edition, or do you think it's more a fault of my media? the thing is it burns normal CD-R's fine. My main question is, I am burning onto DVD minus R-s made by Amazon. they are dule layer 8.7GB. what I'm burning however is only 4 point something odd gigs. Can you not burn single layer sized things to dule layer discs? In other words, say I had an iso that was a single layer dvd image. Do I then have to use a single layer dvd or could I theoreticly still burn it to a dule. I know that would waiste about half the dvd if I did that, but I don't have any single layer discs now. All I got's dule. This is really urgent as the dvd I need to burn is something a customer of mine ordered. If I can't get the resolved I'll just have to refund 'em which is fine, I got no issue doing that, but it would be a total bummer for both of us, but more so for the client. Thank you for any help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] No speech on new Win 7-64 PC
Hi David, The control panel that appears when a person uses C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Speech\SpeechUX\sapi.cpl displays 32-bit and 64-bit voices. Windows on Windows technology is used for this applet. On 64-bit Windows 7, the regular speech applet in the control panel only shows 64-bit voices. For example, on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine, the text-to-speech page of the speech dialog box in the control panel only shows Microsoft Anna and Model Talker Kate. When I use the 32-bit Windows on Windows control panel then I also have Scansoft and other voices listed that are 32-bit. On a 32-bit Windows system, the regular text-to-speech page of the speech dialog box should list the 32-bit engines that will work in that configuration. On the other hand, when I try to set a 64-bit voice on my 64-bit system as default, I can do so using the text-to-speech page of the regular speech applet of the control panel. It is only the 64-bit Windows that doesn't let you set default to the various voices using the normal speech applet of the control panel. People using 64-bit Windows 7 can use C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Speech\SpeechUX\sapi.cpl to change the default speech engine and choose the sound device to be used from the same dialog box. On 32-bit systems a person should be able to do that from the speech applet of the regular control panel. Take care.

[JAWS-Users] Recommendation for 3 totally accessible, totally free and very effective programs
Hello. I assume its ok to share these 3 based on my personal experience on this list without violating any rules. 1. WinCDEmu http://wincdemu.sysprogs.org/ Open source total free and accessible little program that through shell integration creates a virtual drive and then mounts any ISO file on it. It only creates the virtual drive when u need it and you remove the virtual drive via the context menu so its gone when u don't need it. 2. FoldertoISO Feeling lazy so just google this (with no spaces). Open source freeware to convert any folder including all its sub folders to an ISO file. It doesn't remove the original folder, just creates a new ISO file of the selected folder. 3. Pazera video/audio converter suite. totally accessible again, very effective and totally free. converts any conceivable video file format to any other conceive able video format or to any other conceivable audio format. Conversion is lossless with no degradation of sound quality and background hiss/distortion based on my personal experiments with it. FYI, a 40% setting for the volume of the converted audio file matches the volume level of the org file based on my experiments. U will see this volume level setting in the audio extraction part of the program. http://www.pazera-software.com/products/vcsuite/ Enjoy Prateek For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ Send any questions regarding list management to: jaws-users-list-ow...@jaws-users.com

You don't mind if I study this to digest all of it of course. I plan on a 64 bit system possibly toward the end of this month if my plans work out. Thank you, this is possibly tips and tricks material. David Ferrin ow...@jaws-users.com I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I'll probably screw that one up too. - Original Message - From: Brian Lee brianl...@charter.net To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2011 4:42 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] No speech on new Win 7-64 PC Hi David, The control panel that appears when a person uses C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Speech\SpeechUX\sapi.cpl displays 32-bit and 64-bit voices. Windows on Windows technology is used for this applet. On 64-bit Windows 7, the regular speech applet in the control panel only shows 64-bit voices. For example, on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine, the text-to-speech page of the speech dialog box in the control panel only shows Microsoft Anna and Model Talker Kate. When I use the 32-bit Windows on Windows control panel then I also have Scansoft and other voices listed that are 32-bit. On a 32-bit Windows system, the regular text-to-speech page of the speech dialog box should list the 32-bit engines that will work in that configuration. On the other hand, when I try to set a 64-bit voice on my 64-bit system as default, I can do so using the text-to-speech page of the regular speech applet of the control panel. It is only the 64-bit Windows that doesn't let you set default to the various voices using the normal speech applet of the control panel. People using 64-bit Windows 7 can use C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Speech\SpeechUX\sapi.cpl to change the default speech engine and choose the sound device to be used from the same dialog box. On 32-bit systems a person should be able to do that from the speech applet of the regular control panel. Take care.

You might need sighted help to check on these things unless you have enough sight to read the screen. In Windows 7 64-bit machines, you can get to the text-to-speech settings by using the following in the run box of the start menu: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Speech\SpeechUX\sapi.cpl Copy the above line and paste it in the edit box of the run dialog box and press enter key or use the OK button. You will find a list of possible voices to use as default. You can use arrow keys to select a listed voice, and tab to a preview button to hear the voice. If you do not hear the voice then tab to the advance button and press spacebar on it. You will find two radio buttons In a group for using the preferred default audio device or use this audio output device. If you use the up or down arrow key to select the latter then you can tab to a list of audio output devices on your system. Make sure a device that uses your output speakers is chosen or listed. If you can resolve the issue by using this dialog box, you can then go into the JAWS window and under the sound card choice in the utilities menu make a choice. I hope you get it working! Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] ISO????
An ISO is a disk image format developed by an international standards organization in a specific format. This standard is not proprietary, so it can be used by all. It can contain all of the information contained on most optical CD / DVD disks, except for most copy protected disks. Programs to copy the contents to a hard disk in the ISO format can be stored away safely and distributed across the Internet, like a Linux Operating System, Microsoft Office, or a device driver disk. Another common utility is an ISO burner, which can write an ISO file back to an optical disk. There are many other helpful utilities for ISO files. Mounting an ISO file is exactly like inserting a disk into your optical drive. Don Marang There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working on things that matter.

[JAWS-Users] Real Speak Voices
Hi All, How can I change the say all synthesizer to use one of the real speak voices I have installed on my computer? I want the eloquence voice to remain if I am reading current line, current word, ETC. I know you could do this on earlier versions of JFW, but I can't figure it out with JFW 12. I am running JAWS 12 and windows 7. Thanks in advance!
