Hi Listers,

As a blind computer user who uses synthetic speech I am able to use windows
pretty well for the most part.  One area I have a problem with is being able
to access the bios as my screen reader does not become active till either in
dos or windows.
What I am wondering is, are there any utilities that allow you to see into
your bios from  within windows?.
I know you can see a lot of the devices and settings from "device manage"
but there are times you really need to see into your bios.


I don't know if this is possible but such a utility would be of great use to
me if it were  able to allow me to tweak settings in the bios and so on.

Many thanks for information on this,

Paul.
