ALT-tabbing through open applications

Hello the list!
Under Windows 2000, Office 2000 and the latest version of jaws (as always), we 
can have several applications opened and, using the alt-tab combination, flip 
from open app to open app.  We hold down the alt key and hit the tab key.  As 
we do this, the name of the apps are spoken as we cycle through them.  When we 
land on the one we want, we release the alt key.  At least, this is how I see 
it.

A few months ago, I got a new Dell notepad.  It has XP Pro and Office 2003.
Using alt-tab to cycle through open applications doesn't work.  I hold down the 
alt key and hit tab.  Nothing is spoken.  I release the keys and the 
application that I have landed on is spoken.  I hit alt-tab and nothing is 
spoken.  I release the keys and the application that I was in before I first 
hit alt-tab is spoken and that's where I'm at.  If I have 3 apps open, I have 
to hit alt-tab, alt-tab to get to the third one; while nothing is spoken along 
the way.  If I then want to go to the middle one, I suppose, I would hit 
Alt-tab twice again.  Hmmm.  

Any suggestions?
