My friend has bought a laptop with Windows 8 Home Premium or whatever the
term is for a basic version nowadays.  He has set it up using Narrator, and
is now running NVDA on it as he wants to dump JAWS.  So the questions:

1.  Getting Windows 8 to play the welcome and shut down chimes.

2.  How to silence NVDA when K1000 and/or Open Book is running.

Many thanks for this.  I can't help myself as I don't have Windows 8, and
haven't used NVDA yet.

Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns
