Re: [Blind-Computing] How to get US eng ESpeak voice for computer andspoonbill games plese
In the language codes you enter during install, the code for US english is en-us, but pretty sure it's one of the default ones there. I think the spoonville games just use your computer's default voice - which you generally set in the control panel, speech dialogue on windows XP, but which is a bit more difficult to set on windows7 FWIW.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Question accessing ExternalHD
Michael, I think I know what's tgoing on. Most external hard drives have built in software which comes up immediately when you access the drive. It could be something as simple as a list of options or a password portal where you have to enter a certain string of characters to be allowed into the inner sanctum so to speak. You can select a simple program like Notepad or Wordpad and allow the program to make that kind of association. The worst that could happen would be that the displayed data couldn't be read. I believe, although I can't think how right now, that you can go into the Applications menu and reassociate certain files to be read by another program. I had to do that with some programs that were coming up in Microsoft Word Viewer instead of in Word itself.

Re: [Blind-Computing] accessing a windows 7 system over a network
Is it asking if you to enter a password for the Home network? Microsoft thinks they have a trademark or copyright on the term Home Network. It is a feature that allows you to easily share files in a library to be shared across your network. Any folder in any location, internal, external, or remote can be added to a library folder, such as Music. It only works between Windows 7 computers connected through your home router. If you only have one Windows 7 computer, just find the Home Network Control Panel and disable this feature. Otherwise, in the Control Panel, set a new password on the first computer, then join the Home Network, again through this Control Panel, using the same password. There is no username.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Trouble opening C drive
Hi, I had the same problem years ago. My tech guy told me my hardrive was faling and replaced it. I later learned there is a fix at www.kellys-korner.com. If that is not the correct address, you can probably locate it via Inthane's grab bag site or do a google search. I must note, I had the same problem on any drive or folder I tried to open. You might also want to check under menu options to see if you have search checked, but I'm not sure about that one.
