There sure is. It's a cool little free app called Talking Desktop Clock that can be set to automatically announce the time in a voice of your choosing at hourly, half-hourly and/or quarter-hourly intervals. You can also choose a chime sound to play along with the voice announcement.

This will run the next boot, and will take some time so don't worry if it don't boot up right away. make a note on how much space on the drive you have now, because you are going to lose some from the corruption.

Go to the drive properties in My computer and then go to the Tools tab to do this. Unfortunately if your image is corrupted through drive errors you may not have any alternative but to use either a factory restore utility or make a fresh install of windows and all your drivers to get your system back to optimum performance.

Re: [JAWS-Users] How do I get outlook 2007 to set my contacts so they read first, last name?
Hello Jim, In addition to changing each individual contact, you can set the default for the file as order for new contacts. If you have a long contact list you can run a macro to set the file as order to first name followed by last name for existing items. Do the following to set the default file as order for new contacts: 1. Move to the Outlook contacts list by using CTRL+3 if focus is in the inbox or calendar. 2. Press Alt+T to move to the tools menu, use up arrow key to the options choice and press enter key. 3. Focus should now be in the preferences page of the dialog so tab to the contact options button and press enter key. 4. Use tab key to the default file as order combo box and use down arrow until at the choice for first name and then last name. 5. Use tab key to the OK button and press enter key. 6. Use tab key to the OK button again and press enter key. The above will change the file as order for new contacts that you add to the list. In order to change the file as for all existing contacts you can use code I have shown below. The code changes all file as settings in the normal Outlook 2007 contacts to first name followed by last name, but this can be changed quite easily. If you want to proceed with this then copy the following code to the clipboard and then I will show steps after showing the code for entering it and running the macro that will be created. Select and copy the code below starting with the line that begins with private sub down to and including the last line that says end sub. Private Sub ReFileContacts() Dim items As items, folder As folder Dim contactItems As Outlook.items Dim itemContact As Outlook.ContactItem Set folder = Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts) Set items = folder.items Count = items.Count If Count = 0 Then MsgBox Nothing to do! Exit Sub End If ' Filter on the message class to obtain only contact items in the folder. Set contactItems = items.Restrict([MessageClass]='IPM.Contact') For Each itemContact In contactItems itemContact.FileAs = itemContact.FirstName + + itemContact.LastName itemContact.Save Next MsgBox Your contacts have been refiled. End Sub Before working with the above code you will need to temporarily change the security settings while in Contacts. 1. Press Alt+T to bring up the tools menu, use up arrow key to the trust center and press enter key. 2. Use down arrow key to the macros security category. 3. Tab to a group of radio buttons and use down arrow to the choice for warning for all macros. 4. Tab to the OK button and press enter key. Here are the steps for pasting the code and running the macro: 1.While in the contacts list press Alt+F11 to bring up the Visual Basic Editor. 2.If you get a warning about a macro wanting to run use tab to the choice for enabling the macro and press enter key. 3.Press CTRL+R to bring up the project explorer. 4.Expand the Microsoft Office Outlook Objects choice by using right arrow key and then use down arrow key. 5.Press enter key on ThisOutlookSession. 6.Press Alt+T to bring up the tools menu, use up or down arrow keys to the Reference menu item and press enter key. 7.Use first letter navigation to first find Microsoft Outlook 12.0 Object Library and then Visual Basic for Applications and use spacebar to check each of those entries if JAWS says they are not selected. You can use first letter navigation and then use up and down arrow keys or page up and page down keys to find these items in the list. 8.Tab to the OK button and press enter to close the references dialog box. 9.Use CTRL+V to paste the code from the clipboard. 10. Press function key 5 to start the macro running. 11. Use Alt+F4 to close the visual basic editor. You can then reset the security settings in Outlook by doing the following: 1. Open the tools menu in Outlook 2007 by using Alt+T, use up arrow to the trust center choice and press enter key. 2. Use down arrow key to the macro security category. 3. Use tab key to the list of radio buttons and select the Warnings for signed macros; all unsigned macros are disabled if you want the default security settings restored. 4. Use tab key to the OK button and press enter key. 5. Close your session of Outlook 2007 and then restart Outlook for the changes to be in effect. If you want to change back to the LastName FirstName layout then you can do the following: 1. First change security settings in the trust center under the tools menu while focus is in the Outlook contacts. Use the radio button for being warned for all macros. 2. Open Visual Basic Editor by using Alt+F11 when in Outlook Contacts. 3. Go to the bottom of the window by using CTRL+end key. 4. Use up arrow key until you find the line: ItemContact.FileAs =

You have to set the Say All speech synthesizer to something other than default.

As you arrow down through the rows, you can then right arrow through each one. I am sending you some information that will help you set up the row and titles so that you can hear them. Using Names to Create Column and Row Titles 1. Open Excel. A new workbook containing three worksheets appears. The focus is on cell A1 of worksheet one. 2. Press ALT+I to open the Insert menu. 3. Press N to move to and open the Name submenu. The first item in this submenu is Define. 4. Press ENTER and the Define Name dialog box opens. The cursor is in the Names in Workbook edit field. 5. Type in the word Title (capital T) and press ENTER to close the dialog box. Focus is returned to the worksheet again in cell A1. Now, arrow down to row2. As you arrow across, you will hear each column's information along with the information from the row which you are in. You can save this file and these settings will remain there.

[JAWS-Users] Season's Greetings
From the team I have put together and they are all great people to work with I would also like to extend seasons greetings to all the subscribers on here. If it weren't for all of you we would just have to take up fishing or some other such activity to keep us busy. This does keep us off the streets but we do it because it is something we enjoy and for the foreseeable future I don't see that changing. This domain has just been paid for until 2015 and if we hold out that long I'll possibly renew it again. Never the less let's all hope for a beneficial and productive 2010.
