`Hi list:
installing jaws eight over a copy of jaws 7.10.  I installed jaws eight, and 
the pc rebooted.  then jaws didn't speak.  I waited for ages, but nothing 
happened.  subsequent reboots produced no result. now I am using my laptop to 
compose this message of frustrated anger at Freedom scientific.  I have had 
more problems with jaws updates than with any other programme.  I do not see 
how jaws can be installable on one update then broken the next.  I am now 
without my desktop pc.  I need to get sighted assistance resolve this problem, 
and that's not easy to come by.  I am just glad I backed everything up onto a 
removable drive before I installed jaws eight.  I am very angry and upset with 
this programme.  I am able to use kerzwiel 1000 on my desktop, and it receives 
emails fine, so it's not a pc problem.  Why is it that jaws for windows causes 
so many problems when updating?  I am furious and angry that we have to pay so 
much for a programme that breaks down so often in critical situations.  I have 
had data execution errors because of jaws, and no speech at all, and constant 
hassle with jaws.  I don't know what to do with this situation.  I will get 
assistance, maybe Monday, maybe Tuesday, I don't know.  before that though, I 
have the weekend, and I'm thoroughly anoyed with this programme.  If anyone 
else has had this problem, where installing jaws causes the pc not to speak, 
then please let me know.  The problem is, narrator is so dreadful that 
diagnosing the problem is not possible for someone with no sight.  As you can 
guess, I'm very upset.

Hope to hear from you soon.

from Martin.
