Hi, I tried this once with my BN, a laptop running vista and Jaws. I had heaps of issues and found out in the end that there was an issue with this setup so I had to use a different windows version. Luckily for me I was able to get my hands on a windows ExP notebook and once that was set up there were no further issues. I'm not sure if this has improved with newer versions of Jaws and I'm not sure about the other screen readers either. I have found windows Vista a big pain to work with both for sighted and nonsighted. Hopefully there is someone who has gotten this to work who can help you but I just thought I would let you know of my experiences.
