Graham i was just about to suggest the same thing. That is not using the
monitor and just configureing the display to the normal windows settings.

It's not what Operating system you use, it's how productive you are with it.

Hi Dorothy
Well I have experienced your problems.
My advice to you is to set the display to Windows standard and turn off the
monitor.
Best thing I ever did, no more headaches or eye strain.
I use the latest version of word, Outlook etc view my bank account on line on the internet and have no problems.
I really do sympathise with you, not sure how much sight you have but I am now totally blind and before my sight failed I played around with colour settings and found that white on black was the best but it was a losing battle for me.
I do not know where I would be without Jaws it is a brilliant program and I
am very grateful to the writers, Ok there are still one or two annoying
things that happen but nothing I usually cannot get over.
Things are getting better all the time but with the introduction of new
software and hardware Jaws has to adapt to these changes and it can take a
while. Don't know if I am right but this is as I see it.
Don't give up.
Regards
Graham

I have the full unedited Email from Freedoms Michael Schall if y
u wouldhave proffered it. It started with a warning to me not to be pressed
into trying a Dolphin Demo and to get a good Graphics or Video card. i had
to tell him that I had it but its wasn't part of the marketing policy of
said supplier to allow me to use it.. I did not run the Dolphin Demo and a
sighted friend sent to Michael the info he wanted to send to his Florida
techs we had one in saying thank you Dorothy and them well as mentioned
before the ' compression tool ' was applied to him I eventually insisted he
be freed up or else and the poor man was trying to help me mentioning
Ritlabs The Bat etc when again he was stamped upon I am saying as much as
I can today in case your so called professional back you say about
Tuesday stamp on me again if they do wwoe betide them I jmay have learned
nothing but problems during this terrible time and I know it couldn't
happen to a business or a Charity biut a woman on her own needing to use
in a complex manner was not cost effective and things such as three years
Warranty's do not mean think if the skill isn't available and only what?
I will tell you 'Road shows Exhibitions and wellyou have it all. I can only
say that no ebmail user ever got it black on black and yes I have tried
Kurzweil i change to RTF format to export out. I am told Dolphin had the
same problem but changed it by adjusting their software told this by a
man who once worked there.. I may have to throw in the towel but not
without a hell of a good fight. Re the nice man and his quip about you
all getting in black on black as you are all blind that isnot the case
is it?? Lots of peoplehave some degree of vision and Ok
friends kow well it Dorothy again and what to do to get at it even Molly at Moorfields know its me if it comes in
black o
n black. I will tell you soon what a main stream computer chap who
knows not a things about Jaws did to makeit usable for me. Ok tellit now
then he changd the font to Silver and said when you type donot ever press
the carriage return if you do it will cause a line break and then it will
look black on black at the other end. This was true.i asked him to explain
why? He said " do not ask questions I have found a fix for you use it" well
that toldme me enoughit means in my language thathe had not a clue?
Noting if fixed in this business . some say take Norton off fast. including
Michael Schalll himself and I ask around and find RLS have taken it off and
St Dunstans as well I say what ar you using then one St Dunstans says
AVG not the freeby. RLS says Mackafee boththe latter alos say they are
removing Mafgic now and using what sound s like someting squared is it AI
squared? or Zoomtech Well in case you Manger want to chuckme off at leas t
you will get this info today . Re Oe and text I have tried Plain text and
HTML even within one firm two people did not agree with each other. One IT
manager said to me we have 2 identical computers side by side with the same
Specs. The softwaare works on ne andnot he other.
I will apologise for the spelling bit in advance to be spred the lecture
from whoeverit was but if yo could see or hear jaws and to know what
he does in this configuration until y ou are on the receiving end spare me
any harsh words..Remember it is a sighted world out there and people who
donot know what to do may just think it is a sort of secret Email andnot
highlight it! Dorothy
