Hi Mike Were it not for the fact that Window-Eyes 8.2 won’t install under Windows 8.1 natively, allowing you to upgrade to 8.4, my problem would be solved. I have it installed on my Windows 7 system, but the last time I tried it on 8.1 I got a lot of errors.
I’ll give it another go actually, just to be sure. Jaws remote access technologies cost £125.00 GBP per license which, presumably, means that you can only use it to access similarly licensed servers. Citrix is natively slow, Mike, even without a screen-reader. It’s old technology which should have been scrapped years ago and re-written. Microsoft Terminal Services do not have a large footprint and they are much much faster, allowing you to do most or all the things you can do under Citrix, apart from having access to Main Frame computers. I shall go get my 8.2 Window-Eyes CD now and give that a go again.
