Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention that too. The normal setting is 800 by 600 pixels and 16-bit color. I've changed those around in each version too ... all but going down to 8-bit. I've changed them to 32-bitt and increased the pixel settings in increments until they were at their highest. Nothing resolved the problem of Jaws not reading the files and folders. I didn't try changing those setttings to see if it stopped Jaws from crashing the system under Jaws 4.51 and 5.0. I figure that I'll solve that problem after first getting Jaws to read properly in files and folders.
