XP has built in screen reader?

I am trying to determin if XP Home Edition has a built screen reader who is able to read PDF text and document specific files. Is there such a program? If so, how to access and use?

  • View topic - the games shown in a small window on the built-in screen

    I have a SAT. 2805 S402 with Nvidia GeForce2Go chip. I was able to play a couple of my games to the resolution by default (1024 X 768) until I plugged in an external monitor. Now, it displays these games in a small window on the built-in screen. How can I reset this? I've updated my directx stuff, got hardware acceleration, the max value, etc.. DirectX or my driver Nvidia said games to display this way so they will better work?

    As I said, I could read them before fullscreen, I added the external monitor. They were a bit blurry, but I liked better. Kyodai Mahjongg always play at 1024 X 768, but no Tetris 4000 or Atari Arcade.

    Hello

    I put t think directx will help to run these very old games using the full screen.
    In addition, you should always use the Toshiba graphics driver and not the original manufacturer s driver. The Toshiba driver is a slim original graphic driver version and includes a graphics card, protection against overheating.
    I think that this problem occurs only on some games and other games works ok so I n c ELA think other drivers will solve this problem.

    Good bye

  • eMachines ET1331-40F built in card reader not working not

    I have windows 7 Home premium 64-bit SP1

    Seems that, after the latest updates of weeks MS resembles my 8 in 1 (?) card reader does not work. USB ports before work. I checked the Device Manager and under Universal Serial bus controllers, there is an unknown device with an exclamtion point. I tried to look for new drivers and uninstall and reininstalling but niether of those who worked.

    I did add a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse before the adapter, but I don't think that's the problem.

    How can I get my built in back online and functional card reader?

    Thank you, but it has been my experience that cancellations after windows updates are extremely rare and rarely necessary.

    That should only be done in extreme emergency, e.g. PC is locked or you think you have a virus (which a restore may or may not help with that).

    My problem has been resolved in a more easy way:

    (1) turn off the PC and unplug the power cord.

    (2) open the PC and look for cord behind built in card reader. Follow it from the motherboard and disconnect. NOTE: Take a close look at the orientation of the connector AND pins. I didn't know that mine has 2 rows of pins and my card only worked in the lower row.

    (3) card reader unplugged, Leaving the power cord PC and market challenges.

    (4) turn off the PC and unplug it.

    (5) card built in reader of card to card mother. The PC power cord and turn on PC

    (6) check device manager > USB bus controllers, you should now have no points of question marks or exclamation points. Check mobile devices. You should see all the respective readers for each built card reader function.

    Essentially by unplugging and re plugging the card reader you give windows a chance to lose and re - search for the appropriate driver. For some reason, remove the driver and new driver search did not work for me, but the above steps worked.

  • HP Envy 17 built-in screen went black after system updates.

    Hello!

    Earlier today, after updates monthly to Win 7 Home Prem (64 bit, Engl.)  I had the problem with the display of colors with my HP Envy 17. It turns out that caused Windows Silverlight (?) to indicate only a few 256 colors (?). So I plugged another screen (Samsung 22 inch SyncMaster) as external monitor to the computer.  This worked OK. So, I removed the updates of windows outside one by one, starting system after each file. After the removal of Silverlight, the built-in screen returned to original resolution and colors (1910 * 1080, 60 Hz, 32-bit). Then I reinstalled all the other updates and started the system. So far, I was happy. The original problem has been resolved.

    Then, I checked the status of HP Support Assistant. He suggested the update of the program itself and some 5 other updates. I've updated the HP Support Assistant first.  That went well, I guess. After the system start, I checked the other updates the new version of HP Support Assistant suggested. This includes for example. update the BIOS and 4 other updates. After download and installation of these, system startup has produced, triggered by the update. OK to start the system, and Windows started a little. But then the screen integrated (HP laptop) do not continue to see the picture more, external only display gave the image. I used the double at this stage display mode. -Only when you start Windows in safe mode, the screen seems to work, but with a limited resolution and properties.

    I tried to change display modes (dual Extended display, disconnect, projector only), but the screen does not appear. Or, if we turn off the lights (black room), one can imagine to be able to see a light screen Veery also (built-in display) - so some photos also forms in this case (the built-in screen of HP Envy 17). Remove the external display and the system startup without it does not help.

    Please help me and teach how to bring back the computer screen in life!

    Hello.

    Just letting you know that the screen of my HP Envy 17 2050ea now works fine! What helped was a call to the local HP support; Today, I managed to pass through. He suggested to delete the display driver that I did in Safe Mode, as the built-in screen still worked. I've done the following:

    * I started the system using Windows Mode safe mode with networking (press F8 to get there after startup)

    * The I went to the Device Manager (you can use the start search to find)

    * There, I chose the graphics cards. With the right button of your mouse, I have selected to uninstall the display Radeon (TM) driver. In my case it was Radeon (TM) HD 6850 M.

    * After the driver has been uninstalled, I started the system. System booted normally (complete Windows).

    * Now the display settings were a little strange, but the screen has worked

    * After a minute or two, automatic update of the display driver has occurred. System infomed me to this topic. Then I rebooted, to allow the driver to use.

    * After reboot my screen was back to normal, as it was before the problem.

    Summary: The problem has been resolved through resettlement of the display driver. Fortunately, heavy recovery or reinstallation of the entire system was not necessary.

  • XPS 8700 has built-in speaker and microphone features necessary for Cortana?

    I am considering a desktop computer Dell XPS 8700 with the Ultrasharp monitor of 24 (U2412M). The XPS 8700 Office summary shows that it comes with audio 7.1 channels, integrated with MaxxAudio 4. This means that the computer has built-in speakers and microphone required for Cortana at work? Y at - it no need to watch a Soundbar to the monitor if my audio needs are the basis?

    Hi jekeesl,

    At the moment there is no XPS with Windows 10 8700. In a few days, they will probably appear on the Web site.

    You can order speakers when you build your pc.

    Insofar as the monitor, you have chosen a very good. I read the card and do not see a webcam. When you build your pc, you can see the monitors that are offered with webcam.

  • Equium A300D - has built in Bluetooth?

    Hello

    I want to know if my Equium A300D computer laptop (PSAK2E) has built in bluetooth hardware or I have to buy hardware for her?

    If this is not what is the best material for the laptop?

    If this how to activate it, I installed the bluetooth stack, but to complete the installation it asks me to "connect the bluetooth device?

    Thanks in advance for your help

    If you A300D - 13 X, I must inform you that this laptop model doesn t have BT modules.
    Best BT and the simplest solution is to buy small stick USB BT.

    Configuration is easy and you can use it when necessary. If you don't need connectivity BT simply remove key USB BT of the system.
    These USB keys are not expensive and you can buy it in every store of the computer.
    All that s.

  • HP Compaq has a black screen at power up... The BIOS Corruption failure?

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ61 product: VM9496Q2X model: CQ61-319WM series: [edited by moderator serial number], which has a black screen when I turn on.  The wifi button stays red and the caps lock flashes twice.  I think that it indicates a BIOS curruption faliure.  I tried to reset by unplugging and removing the battery and holding the power for 30 seconds button.  I tried the f8 key and esc repeatly to power upward. I also tried pressing the windows and the B key and the power key, but nothing has worked.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm very disappointed with the lack of response of an HP Service Technician.  I ended up taking my laptop to a computer repair shop.  My problem is that the graphics card has become dessoudée of the motherboard.  They have rearranged my motherboard and it works fine.  fix $ 79.00.
