Re: How to put Jaws asleep

MessageHello Jim:

The suggested method I posted in my previous message, is best for when you are 
using programs such as Total Recorder, where you might want to set parameters 
for recording levels, etc., then you want to silence speech while you are 
recording from an external source, using a sound card.

Because, if you do not silence speech when you are recording through the sound 
card, that is also being used by JAWS, anything that JAWS speaks will be 
included in the recording that you are making.

However, if you are using Total Recorder's software sound driver, you do not 
need to silence JAWS, if you are recording a stream over the internet, for 
example. 

Hope This Helps.

Sincerely:

Dave Durber

    yes this is easy.
    open the game
    JAWSKey+f2 
    choose configuration manager.
    this will make a jcf file for the game if there is not one already
    choose advanced from the set options menu.
    Check the sleep mode check box
    press enter to activate the ok button
    Close the configuration manager and say yes when it asks if you want to 
save the changes.
    from then on when the game is running JAWS will be silent. when you exit 
the game or alt+tab away from it JAWS will work normally.
    Roy
