John, as u likely know, graphics in jaws generate crc values--thus,
the graphic whatever number u sometimes hear when a graphic isn't
labeled. This holds true of the minimize, maximize, & close graphics
at the top of the window as well. Normally these are created at
sufficiently common resolutions & w/a fair number of color schemes &
likely a representative sampling of hardware so that they're
recognized virtually universally.
I've gotta suspect that 1 or a couple things are actually occurring here:
a) It could be that something is happening to obscure Jaws' view;
b) It could be that either the resolution, graphics hardware, or video
acceleration is the culprit.
Make certain your resolution is adequate to the task, e.g., usually at
least 1024 x 768 on desktop models. Also try playing w/the hardware
acceleration. Put it as high as possible.
Having said all that, though, u might wanna check out the various
technical bulletins on the fs website, especially those having to do
w/incompatibility between Jaws & various video cards. If your machine
has 1 of these graphics cards that Jaws doesn't like, your only
solution may be to get a video card that plays nicer w/jaws. I am
assuming as I write all this that you're not getting any video
intercept errors & that you're running the proper jaws version for
your operating system.

Blame the computer--why not? It can't defend itself & occasionally
might even be the culprit
