This has changed since they started using qt4, and that was at least two years ago if not more. When I used to use the builds of virtualbox using qt4 under windows xp, and wineyes 6.1, it was quiet accessible. Nowadays, I'm using virtualbox 4.3.x on windows7 home premium with the latest nvda, and that is quiet accessible also.

The last time I tried it (about a year ago) the gui was totally inaccessible with jaws. I would really appreciate knowing how others are getting it to work since my laptop can't handle vmware workstation maybe it will handle virtualbox instead. -- web site: http://www.gregn.net gpg public key: http://www.gregn.net/pubkey.asc skype: gregn1 (authorization required, add me to your contacts list first) If we haven't been in touch before, e-mail me before adding me to your contacts. -- Free domains: http://www.eu.org/ or mail dns-manager@EU.org
