RE: win 10 update more info

Hi,

Try pressing Control-Windows-M, Window-Eyes will then unmute the sound card,
or attempt to.

All the best

Steve

Subject: win 10 update more info

Hi Again:

 

Ok, had a friend with sight and all looked good on the screen

 

All icons and the  keyboard worked with the desktop icons

 

Thus, nothing wrong with windows 10, but, the problem, no speech.

 

I tried to use the window eyes command to start but no lluck

 

Then my friend tried to click on the window eyes icon and still nothing.

 

So I am assuming that either the sound card is finished or the sound is
muted

 

That is it for me, I will need some help from a tech person unless I could
install win eyes again from the cd, possible yes or no?

 

Don't you just love computers, (smile)

Don

Ok, thanks, it is now in my friend's care, he is a tech type and he said it
looks like it happened with the update and he could not go back as an even
newer updated.
That is the problem with windows 10, it is all automatic and we it seems to
me that we don't have a choice when it comes to updates
Hopefully he will find the problem

Re: win 10 update more info

Don,
If you have Windows sounds or your sighted friend can get any audio out 
via music, YouTube, or any other internet source I'd have them open the 
Window-Eyes control panel, devices, synthesizers, and make sure your 
synth is going to the right audio output. Mine has been changed to a 
different output occasionally. But I have two audio interfaces with 
several outputs and set Window-Eyes to one and NVDA and Narrator to 
another. So they will usually work and allow me to reset Window-Eyes.
Windows has never dealt with multiple audio devices well. And things 
like a USB headset or microphone with a headphone jack constitute 
secondary sound cards.
I've also seen updates change the system default output in the same way, 
which is usually very illogical, i.e. to my digital or ADAT outputs. And 
this can make it seem like nothing is working because most media players 
assume the default output. This is why, if possible, I set them to the 
specific output that is the default rather than just "default."
So you'd have to have your friend check the default output in the 
Windows control panel, sounds.

Hth,
Tom

That's one possibility.

   Did you restart the PC again. Sometimes after an update I've had the OS 
not load the sound drivers for some reason.
