Mark,

I don't think it should be a memory problem as I have 1 gb of RAM, but it's
interesting that another model of Braille display doesn't have the same
problem.  I wonder whether FS re-wrote the driver for the PowerBraille which
is included with Jaws 6.2.  I will have to check the dates of the relevant
Braille drivers, and might replace the one which ships with 6.2 with the one
from 6.1 if I find they are different.  The one from Jaws 6.1 works
absolutely fine.

Thanks,

Caroline.

This is interesting Caroline, I am using a Handy Tech 80 braille display
with Jaws 6.2 and had no problem.

I wonder if it may be a RAM or some kind of memory problem with your PC?

Regards

Mark
