Well perhaps, but it's only noon now and I've given up trying to do anything
online. When I open a page, I can hear JAWS reading through the percentage
loaded (10, 19, 28, 38) and so on, it's just so slow! The laptop which is
working wirelessly is still fine, so I guess that rules out a problem with
Broadband?

Could it be your broadband connection? The evening problem could be a red
herring as far as your machine is concerned. It may simply be caused by the
fact that the kids have come home from school and jump on the internet,
followed by their mums and dads later on.

Sorry, forgot to say I am using JAWS 9, Windows XP pro and BT Broadband.

Subject: [jaws-uk] RAM and the Internet
Hi All
I won't go into the details, but I purchased a desktop Acer some months ago
and somehow between the company I purchased it from and their repairs company
(arrived faulty) half of my 1GB of RAM disappeared. Neither side would take
responsibility, but the company I purchased it off did send me the replacement
RAM to get fitted. I am in the process of arranging to have a further 1GB of
RAM fitted so I will have 1536MB.
My question is: I am having a lot of problems recently using the Internet.
Pages take ages to load and sometimes when I type in an address and press
Enter, I get nothing and have to close down it's taking so long. When I use the
cursors nothing is spoken and pressing the Tab only reads the address I have
typed in. This problem gets worse in the evenings when the computer has been
running most of the day. Is this due to the low RAM (512MB) or could it be
caused by another problem? I have Eset Smart Security running, so don't think
there are any nasties getting in. It's just making any kind of online work
pointless.
If I knew it was the RAM it would be fine as it's getting sorted in the
next few days.
Thanks for any advice.
