Go back to 4.51 and wait for version 5.1.
That's what I'm doing.
Version 5.0 is a real gaff, at least for several.

Subject: Jaws 5.0 losing focus in WinXP


Hi all,

I am finding that Jaws 5.0 continually loses focus in WinXP, both the
Home and Pro versions.  For example, if I'm in Windows Explorer and move
from file to file, Jaws at some point will stop reading the name of the
file I move to.  If I press insert up arrow, Jaws will just say "Blank".
Also, when Alt tabbing between open programs, many times Jaws will not
read the programs I am cycling through.  The only way to find out which
program I am on is to let go of the Alt key and often I'm not in the
program I wish to be.  Has anyone else found this?  Has anyone found a
solution?  I've done all the necessary steps to make Jaws work with
WinXP as suggested by FS. I've also tried changing screen resolution,
colors, and updating my video drivers.  I'm using a Matrox Millenium
G200 video card at home and an Nvidia TNT2 at work.  Thanks in advance
for any help.


Russell
