32 or 64 bit, that is the question
Hi, Well before the free W 10 offer expires, I'll update my W7 HP 32 bit system to a flavour of W 10. It seems that the system must be upgraded to W 10 32 bit first, activated and then a clean install of W 10 64 bit can be undertaken if desired. I think, although not confirmed, the update from W 10 32 bit to W 10 64 bit is also free. So, my questions are: Is 64 bit the comeing standard and so sooner or later 32 bit will be phased out? i.e. Is it better to bite the bullet now rather than be tforced into a change in the future? Also, my system would probably benefit from a clean install regardless of the version of W 10. Or, is there no real advantage in going up to 64 bit at present? I know my system and printer will handle 64 bit and thankfully there is no difference in versions of WE. That is unlike the opposition of course. Your thoughts please. Thanks Neville. ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

Re: we 9.2, very unresponsive
Hello list. I have noticed that Window Eyes does become so slow on large web pages that it makes it a chore to get on those pages. Here at this end I am also worried if the problem will ever be fixed. There seems to be no answers whatsoever. Kenneth Son. On 11/25/2015 22:52, via Talk wrote: I agree that having only 4 GB of Memory is very little, and yet, I see systems for sale at Costco, and other On Line Dealers, getting sold with only 4 GB of memory. These are your $350 to $500 machines, and when I see them, I wonder how quick they would be with so little memory. I am using 6 GB of memory on this machine, and it too is too often very slow when on web sites like Ebay and Youtube. WE 9.X has been a disappointment. If I would have paid the $250 for a new Computer monitor, and it was said to be a fast monitor, but on my system it was not, I would have returned the monitor to the store where it was purchased. Something I could not do after forking out $200 for 9.1, and then finding it to be a Big Disappointment. Then a few months later, forking out another $50 to upgrade to 9.2, only to find 9.2 was a minor improvement, but 9.2 still crashes, locks up, goes quiet far too often, especially if I am on the Web, or am typing too fast within a word processor such as MS Word 2010, or an Email program like Becky. And the longer I have the system ON, the funkier the system gets. I suspect something is messing up memory in some way. Perhaps a program using what ever memory it needs, and then when that program is closed, the system is not given back all of the memory first used by the first program, so there is less memory for the second program to operate. I am just guessing here. If this is a memory management issue, then I doubt if this is a WE problem, unless it is WE that is causing the problem with WE not giving back the memory it has used. Again, I know just enough to be dangerously guessing. Some here swear they have no problems what so ever. I do not know what is different about their systems, than mine, but apparently there are some differences that are important. have heard nothing from A I Squared. have called them probably four or five times. They don't have any answers. I get it, sometimes there just isn't an answer. While I would love to walk out and purchase a brand new system, say one with 16 GB of RAM, and one of those I7 Chips under its hood.It won't be this Christmas, or any time shortly after the new year. After this long of time, I was hoping that A I Squared might have made some correlations, as I know I am not the only person with a System WE 9.2 does not like. When I worked in Tech Support, we would keep track of hardware and Windows configurations if the software we were supporting was having some troubles on some systems out there in the real world. I recall one time, out CD discs would not be read by a number of customers systems. And yet, loads of other customers had no issues what so ever. We started looking at the manufacturer, and model of the CD drives on the systems that would not read our discs. As it turned out, this one model of CD drive would not read our discs. No one ever knew why, but when we had a customer call in, telling us our disc would not read, we could easily look to see the model and manufacture of the CD drive, and sure enough, if the customer had that particular drive, we had a solution to make that drive work. But until we started keeping track of hardware and software used on machines that refused to read our discs, we had no idea why, or how to give the customer a solution. I was hoping, and am still hoping for something like this from A I Squared. So far they have my $250 and all is too quiet. ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

Re: still having wifi drop outs.
can't you set the wy fi to only connect to your wi fi and ignore everyone else? also in my router i can change the wy fi channel to use and turn off automatic switching of the channels. so you could find a channel that is less conjusted and only use that one. -Original Message- From: Rod Hutton via Talk Sent: Thursday, November 26, 2015 6:37 PM To: 'michaeel's mail' ; 'Window-Eyes DiscussionList' Subject: RE: still having wifi drop outs.

Re: still having wifi drop outs.
try other driver versions. like if you have windows 10 64 bit try useing a windows 7 64 bit driver from the manufacture. or vista 64 bit. i was able to do this with my 10 year old hp printer. even though the last driver hp made for it was for vista 64 bit it still worked with windows 7 , 8 and 8.1 64bit. until i got a mono laser all in one a few months ago. windows found win 10 drivers for this one. -Original Message- From: michaeel's mail via Talk Sent: Thursday, November 26, 2015 4:42 PM To: window eyes help list Subject: still having wifi drop outs.

RE: Webinar and tutorial topics - feedback requested
Hi mark, In my opinion, tutorial on topic 2 and 4 are really necessary. And if there are any significant difference from ms-office 201-0 to 2016 perhaps the differences in ms-office2016 can be highlighted in a brief tutorial. Also tutorial about how to use curtana speech assistant in windows 10 would be wonderful.
