HI
I especially would find this useful as from time to time I
have to get sighted assistance when my pc won't boot up and
it is waiting for a response, there must be a way around
this for Microsoft.
Regards
Adrien

Hi Steve,
This is a valid point regarding the need for a dedicated
screenreader, provided that Microsoft do more to make sure
you can here your computer as it loads up - say, when it
asks you whether you want to run in safe mode, or tells you
about errors encountered during the boot-up process. There's
more to accessibility than just screenreaders though, so the
subject does deserve at least an honourable mention.
Best,
Clive

Hi,
Who cares? We don't need one. Just download NVDA.
All the best

Hi all.
First of all want to apologize for cross posting but want to
raise an important question.
For all who have not watched the presentation that Microsoft
put out regarding the win 10 consumer preview this is the
audio link.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16617710/videoplayback.m
4a
Note.
The presentation is a full presentation without the cutting
off of the question answer session I have only converted
into audio so that it becomes small to download.
The original video presentation is about 1.35 GB In the
entire presentation of about 2hrs 19 min and 23 seconds
Microsoft has not discussed on accessibility or regarding
adding a screen reader to windows 10 and I mean full fledge
screen reader.
So now what do we do next.
Although there are some fantastic things in this
presentation will not spoil the excitement watch and see
