There are often special buttons on laptops to increase or decrease the
volume. These are usually located above the keyboard if you have them.
Otherwise there are some programmes you can load for the purpose or you do
so with controls in your system tray.

One other way to help increase your battery life, that works for blinks,
is that we can set the screen brightness to it's lowest setting. At
least, on my laptop, there is a hot key to change the brightness, so if I
need a sighted person to take a look, I can just bump the brightness back
up.
On my Asus netbook the volume up and down keys are the fnc key plus the
f12 and f11, so you see, the combinations can vary depending on the PC.

Deana,
there may be a combination for muting the sound too. If Jaws suddenly quits
along with Windows sounds and other things you have found it. Maybe FN-12 or
FN-9. Usually it is a toggle but it might also return with Volume Up.
Don't know if the mute stays in effect if you turn off and
Many laptops, particularly some of the newer ones with larger screens, have
separate volume buttons. On my HP, they are on a small metal strip above
the function keys. They are not denoted tactually, so I had to up a braille

You might have that option in the battery power savings options and you
might have it in the function keys options, the ability to dim the screen.

The way you mute the sound totally is to press control+windows+m until you
hear mute all and then you go back around 'til you hear Mute off, if you
want all sound back. hth.

My laptop manufacturer agreed to provide my laptop without a monitor.
I have a port on it to connect an external monitor but have never
needed it. It made the laptop lighter as well.
