Re: [Blind-Computing] Error Loading IE 6-XP Home
Hi Margaret, Somewhere during that process, it should mention the windows validation tool. I can understand your frustration, so take a break. You can go back to it later, when you are fresh, you'll get it.

It seems MS has to certify that my copy of XP and/or Office is genuine before it will let me download it. It then said something about the genuine advantage version having expired and I haven't been able to find out how to get an unexpired one yet. I may have messed up since at least the first I was asked if I wanted to run Publisher I said no since I didn't understand that it was needed to run the validation process. The expired thing may mean that I've exceeded my allotted attempts. I'm hoping I can try again later. I could swear that I've downloaded the genuine advantage thing every time it has come up with updates. The machine is 2 years old and the copy XP is legal as far as I know. My tech built the machine and I don't know if it was already on there or if he installed it. Anyway, I need a break. Margaret Ricque wrote: Hi Margaret, Go ahead and download the file from Microsoft.

You may need to run setup. and there was an okay button to press. I did a Google search and found a Microsoft article that seems to give a resolution to the problem, but I wanted to make sure I didn't get myself into a mess and have a couple of questions. SYMPTOMS After you connect to a Web site, you may receive the following error message: A file that is required to run search companion cannot be found. You may need to run setup. After you receive this error message, you cannot use Search Companion to search for files or folders, or to search the Internet. The options to search for files or folders, or to search the Internet, are unavailable. Back to the top CAUSE This behavior can occur if a file required to run Search Companion is missing or damaged. Note that this problem affects only the English-language version of Windows XP. NOTE: Search Companion files may be damaged if you have Search Companion open when you connect to certain Internet Service Providers. Back to the top RESOLUTION To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods. Back to the top Method 1: Install Windows XP SP1 Back to the top Method 2: Download and Install the Hotfix The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center: Download Download the Q319949 package now http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319949 If I go ahead and download and try to install the Hotfix, will XP automatically put it in the right place for me since I have no idea of where it belongs? I have SP 2, so I don't think I want to install SP 1. Also, where is the Search Companion? I downloaded and installed the Microsoft updates yesterday and wonder if one of them might have corrupted this Search Companion. The computer is XP Home with IE 6 and I'm running JAWS 7.0. Any help in straightening this out would be greatly appreciated.

[Blind-Computing] Window media player
I apologize if this gets posted for the second time. My problem is with Music Match Jukebox. I have always used Windows Media Player. Somehow Music Match has taken over and made itself the default player. The question is how do I reverse this and use Windows media player as my default player? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Margaret, Just to add to what John said, once you press the alt+N to go to the information bar, you need simply press the spacebar to activate the menu choices, at which point, you can arrow up and down through the choice to what you want to do. Hope this helps.

Re: [Blind-Computing] TV tuners
Hi Ariana, As far as I know, TV Tuners come in an external box, or internal card version. I don't think I've ever seen them in USB stick format, but it has been a while since I've seen these. I actually have a client who is asking for one on her computer, and was joyful to find out that the price of these puppies has dropped significantly since I dealt with them. The last one I owned was the ATI All In Wonder, and it allowed you to have different video inputs to your computer, such as S-video, RCA, Firewire, and other connections. Once plugged into the ports, the card would act as the interface between the computer and the device. It would also have the added functionality of being able to tune in analog signals from your cable line, or satellite source. You would, of course need a program that would be able to receive and extrapolate the signal into a viewable format, and I really can't say if such a program exists that is compatible for the blind or visually impaired. It would be a great thing if someone knew of an accessible program, and could send that information to the list. Hope this helps.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Error Loading IE 6-XP Home
Hi, Everybody, I think I got everything related to active x controls turned on and I tried it again from the beginning. It seemed to try to validate the genuine advantage, but I got another error: Validation Incomplete Why didn't my machine complete validation? You have encountered an unknown error. Please contact your local product support team for further assistance with this issue. [0x80080299] I haven't tried the frequently asked questions again which I think is where I found the diagnostic center last night where I kept running into the problem with the information bar. I need some lunch and more caffeine and will see if I can find it again or call my tech.
