Oooo! Really Soronel? eeeeek! how did you find that out? Memory leaks are
not all that obvious are they?
I only have 12 on my new laptop. I wonder what symptoms one might want to
look out for, that memory leaks are occurring?

1920x1080 works fine for me (at least with jfw16 and before that
jfw15). What is not supported well is using DPI scaling (the make text
appear larger setting).

If you use resolution dependent features like jaws frames then you
will likely have problems if you change the resolution (even if the
resolution only changes because you move configuration files between
systems running at different resolutions). But even with such features
if you do not change the resolution you should be fine.

I do recall with older jaws versions (12 or so IIRC) there were
problems running at anything above 1600x1200. If memory serves the
problems were jaws memory leaks rather than not actually being able to
deal with the screen at that size.

Hello,

My laptop supports the resolutions below and it keeps telling me that the
optimal resolution is 1920x1080.
Do you know if it is supported well by JAWS or I should choose a lower
resolution? And if I need to set a lower resolution, how low it needs to
be?

I have seen that under Windows 7, unlike under Win XP, if I route JAWS
cursor to PC cursor and read immediately with Insert+PageUp, JAWS reads
more

than it should, which is a sign that the mouse cursor was not placed
immediately where it should. But if I let it for a few seconds and I read
with Insert+PageUp, it reads OK.
I thought that JAWS may be confused by the resolution, but I am not sure.

The resolutions I can use are:
1920x1080
1600x900
1280x720
1024x768
